My Partner was referred to this hospital for an MRI scan, she is in chronic pain, the GP has major concerns that it is serious, the GP at Buckhurst Hill arranged an ambulance to take my partner to whipps cross. She waited 6 hours, to be met by an arrogant doctor who told her she was going for an x-ray, my partner has has these before and already knows it's nothing to do with that. The doctor at the hospital then takes her for an x-ray and says there is nothing wrong with her, she can barely walk or get up out of her seat!! She has now come home without any MRI or the possibility of one and she still for an not know what is wrong. Now I am pretty sure if this gets worse and it is something serious I think there is malpractice in this case. I understand doctors are under extreme pressure to meet targets but it is getting to a point where they are not actually doing their job of diagnosis.
