"Accident and emergency"

About: Darlington Memorial Hospital

My wife was taken to a& e at Darlington hospital with severe back pain she was seen by a (doctor) in which they gave her a morphine injection and sent her home telling her to get some tiger balm it turned out that my wife had three slipped discs surely any doctor worth their salt should have realised something was wrong it just seemed to me they were on a time limit to see each patient as soon as the morphine wore off the pain was back.
