Am absolutely appalled by the lack of organisation that i have encountered since changing my hospital to Orpington Hospital. I did not receive an appointment for a considerable time and then my prescription was not signed until a full month after seeing a specialist, causing me to miss at least 6 weeks of medication. I then suffered an infection and had to stop treatment. When I had my next appointment i was told i would be seen in a month by a specialist and this was in January, I still haven't received an appointment and was told today that nothing is on the system. Also was given no blood forms on last apt. When ever i try to ring i am faced with yet another answer machine, the appointments line never picks up. Its ridiculous.
