"My gran couldn’t have a X-ray"

About: Royal Liverpool University Hospital

(as a service user),

Unprofessional and in my opinion clearly have no idea what they are talking about. App a Scam gives less radiation than a X-ray.....FACT scans give around 10x the radiator of a X-ray

The radiographer stood in a waiting room slagging off our GP saying they didn’t know what they were talking about. They proceeded to tell us that my gran couldn’t have a X-ray as she is over 45 and the GP should have requested a scan as xrays give more radiation that a scan....absolute load of rubbish. My gran is 86 paid NI stamp all her life. She was in hospital in the 50s for   child birth then again in 2010s as another Merseyside hospital she went toosaid she was too old and no point doing a scan. I over heard this and told the doctor she paid into the nhs system all her life who are they to play god, anyway after a scan they operated on a perforated bowel and she then lived on. Now she can’t walk but still lives alone with stairs to climb. She costs the state nothing but the state deny her the medical attention she is very well entitled too. Absolute JOKE, the radiographer also spoke all my nans private business all over the waiting room. I, my family and all my social media audience are absolutely disgusted! !
