ALL I can say is this, if your private then you get the best of the best, if your NHS and was refered to the Duchy then you get NHS treatment, and in my case no treatment what so ever, I am a NHS patient and had my appointment with the Duchy Hospital cancelled twice because they told me that I could not have a consultation with a consultant about my knee because I suffer from angina, they told me that if something went wrong with my consultation then they don't have the facilities to treat me in case I have a angina attack/heart attack. now that seems a bit strange because I am only going to see a consultant and have a chat as to why I am getting pains in my knee and hip, I am not having a operation or anything like that, its just a chat. not to worry duchy I have now gone private and will be attending another private hospital
