Very unhappy with attitude of the consultant

Posted By sanny

"Very unhappy with attitude of the consultant"

About: Stonehouse Hospital

(as the patient),

The consultant I saw today was very unhelpful, rude and I feel they were quite horrible to me. I found it very hard to understand what they were saying to me. I have a walking stick to help me steady as I have a painful foot due to an accident at the hands of the NHS when a doctor failed to treat me correctly.

Today I was told to go cycling, the consultant even joked about why I was using a stick. I am sick about this, I do not feel they should be doing this job.
