"Long wait for walk-in, though I did see a doc in..."

About: Hospital For Tropical Diseases

The staff at the desk made me feel a little unwelcome through their attitude. Not helpful during such an already stressful period. Very long wait, but it was a walk in emergency clinic so I had expected to wait anyway. The clinic was packed. Every seat in the waiting room was taken. Getting there early in the day may reduce the wait. I saw a triage nurse, had bloods taken, then saw an infectious diseases doctor. The doctor was attentive. Overall I was glad I went, even if it took almost 3.5hrs in total.
