How much longer do I have to wait?

"How much longer do I have to wait?"

About: Eastbourne District General Hospital / Colorectal surgery The Tunbridge Wells Hospital

(as the patient),

I have been waiting for an appointment at the dgh Eastbourne despite a letter to consultant about bringing forward date.

I have heard nothing despite ongoing problems. My medication is causing a range of side effects and other health problems seem to be occurring. Not sure if this related to my condition. Was attending Tunbridge Wells hospital but have now been referred to Eastbourne as it is more local. My gp has been brilliant but can't sort medications. How much longer do I have to wait?

We were sorry to read that you have experienced problems since being referred to Eastbourne Hospital. Can I suggest that you contact their PALS service so that they can look into the delay on your behalf? With kind regards, the PALS team
