I went to Louth Urgent care after having to leave my night shift work early due to having shortness of breath, rib and lung pain , combined with a painful cough. I arrived at around 5.30am.
The staff are all extremely friendly and I felt I was being taken seriously.
They are very thorough, started with the assessment which led to X-ray blood tests and a concoction of tablets Nothing was to much trouble. The longest wait was for blood tests to come back from Grimsby. I still think the wait for those was pretty short when you compare it to regular blood work waits.
The diagnosis came back as a severe chest infection which was heading towards pneumonia had I left it much longer. They had also checked for a lung blood clot.
I have followed the advice given and already feel a lot better.
I seriously can’t thank everyone at Louth Urgent Care enough.
