"failure to listen"

About: Furness General Hospital

Anything else?

Two consultants failed to listen to what I was telling them and politely fobbed me off, making me wonder why I was wasting my time and tax-payers' money. I was fobbed-off with an inadequate prescription, which has unsurprisingly not made any improvement and a correct diagnosis has yet to be made. Staff in X-ray and Endoscopy departments however were great and made the investigative procedures as comfortable as possible.
