"Epic Waiting Times"

About: St Mary's Hospital (HQ) (London)

We have been waiting for 6 hours, and we were informed of another 4.5 hour wait by the nurse.

We have seen several patients in the A&E voluntarily leave without seeing a doctor due to these waiting times. The only thing the staff are willing to do is move patients from one waiting room to another waiting room.

If you value your health and life, avoid this A&E department at all costs.
