"For the second time I'm disgusted with the place"

About: Bassetlaw Hospital

Was taken by ambulance after dislocating my knee. Was put in a freezing hallway on the trolley and left. No one came to see me and no one I old me what was happening.

Asked for a pillow for my leg but was refused until a nurse gave me a blanket to fold up.

All the nurses made me feel extremely un easy as every time I asked what was going on they cut me off saying I would get seen when they were free even though they were all sat eating crumpets.

I had been stuck for three hours so was extremely cold and the pain relief had worn off and I was in extreme pain.

Eventually I was Xrayed and then a doctor who clearly hadn't done the English test as the doctor spoke very poor English put a crepe bandage on my knee and sent me on my way with.no infomation at all.

I managed to get to reception on the crutches and when there noticed blood was gushing out of my arm. The doctor had left the canular in and the crutch had ripped it out.

I was covered in blood and so was the floor stood in reception with no trouser as they had been cut and no shoes and one one sock. The receptionist then insinuated it was my fault.

The last time. Either I came here they diagnosed me with DVT when in fact it was caudal equin a.

Terrible place with awful staff that just don't care. My doc has informed me this morning that the bandage ingredients is completely useless and the treatment they offered is completely wrong because of my ongoing medical issues.

This is a terrible advert for the NHS
