"Post viral A & E"

About: Royal Sussex County Hospital

A & E visit with visual disturbances and headache, dullness and fatigue. 3 episodes over 3 days. Quick triage then shortish wait for doc. People after me would have waited a lot longer. Doc was great, extremely thorough then sent me to A and E at eye hospital across the road. 2 hour wait but ok. It was a weekend! Excellent examination all round. Back to original doc who had not only seen other patients but also researched my symptoms and concluded it was probably a change in migraine attacks after flu like illness. I was happy with that diagnosis.

Dear Colin, Many thanks for your positive feedback regarding the service you received at our Emergency Departments in the Royal Sussex County and Sussex Eye Hospitals. I am glad you were happy with your diagnosis but sorry that you had to wait a while. As I am sure you witnessed, there is a lot of demand on these services, especially at weekends. I do hope you are now feeling better. I will share your feedback with the teams who will be delighted to see it. Andrew Harvey Patient Advice & Liaison Service
