"The staff and doctors are doing a very good job"

About: Lincoln County Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

The staff were very good and the amount of people in A& E was a lot, I was sent there from my gp who couldn't get me a bed so I had to go through A& E, if people would think before going there it would make the doctors and nurses job much better.

The amount of people who went in really struggling to walk and said they hurt their foot so the nurse would get them a chair and they would see the nurse then the doctor then X-ray all to be told it's not broken and they would get up off the wheelchair and walk out the door without even the smallest of   limps.

So yes the staff are doing a fantastic job and it's the public who are making their jobs very hard and making the waiting times go up and making the hospital look bad when it's not. I spent 23 weeks in there last year not all in one go but the staff and doctors are doing a very good job.
