Been attending this department most of my life excellent department.
Was seen by a pleasant consultant on Friday 26th February 2016 regarding another matter when I mentioned chronic ear ache.was advice significant caries in unerupted lower left third molar which is probably causing the symptoms.They were referring me to other colleagues waiting time 5 /6 weeks.
2nd March received a letter confirming.
Waited 5 weeks phoned to check appointment wasn't lost in post lovely person confirming referral send and advice me to contact the other department direct whichI I did to be told didnt receive referra i explain it was internal and could they check again and speak to Secretary who dealt with as
I was in pain. Received a call next day with a appointment on 9 June 2016 and was told didnt receive referral until 6 th April 2016 ( the day I query where my appointment was ) .
No fault of my own have to 15 weeks for treatment longer than its states on this website for referrals from your own gp
Very disappointed with appointment system
"Internal referral over looked now 15 weeks wait..."
