After months of waiting whilst feeling extremely unwell, I was met with hostility from the start.
The consultant seemed annoyed that I’d asked to be seen at a ‘Centre of Excellence’ and I felt intimidated and bullied throughout the appointment.
I was asked “what were you expecting” and “what exactly do you want from me”.
I was speechless.
I wanted help but now I’m at the end of the queue at a different hospital whilst my health deteriorates weekly.
When a Doctor loses compassion then maybe they need a different career.
I can’t think where else in life someone is allowed to speak to you like that. On reflection I am glad I won’t have to attend this department again.
The nurses, however, are kind, polite and a credit to the department.
"Horrible experience"
