Came in with extreme chest pains , waiting time was meant to be fourty minutes. Sat there for three and a half hours. Triage nurse put chest pains down to being gastro pains without even asking. Left me sitting in the waiting area for a further few hours with no pain relief knowing that the wait would be longer as gastro is apparently trapped wind. I now carry a note that says if anything happens to me do not take me to south Tyneside hospital. Will never be coming back here again and will be letting friends and family know of my experience
