On referral by my GP in July to the cardiology department, I managed after several phone calls and cancelled appointments, to get an appointment for the 21st September.
I was then referred to the 24hr monitoring department.
I was fitted with a monitor on the 4th September and returned it on the 5th.
It has now been 5 weeks with no further appointment for the results of the monitor.
Twice I have phoned the secretaries office, who are very polite - no complaint there, but am told to ring again next week.
I get the impression there is no real organisation within the department.
I am not a person who complains but I feel someone should take charge and re-organise this department to operate more efficiently.
5-6 weeks to get results I feel is unacceptable.
I would like your comments on this matter.
