"No Scan, No treatment"

My brother attended A&E this morning with ?acute renal colic. He was seen by a Dr who diagnosed kidney stones without a CT scan or X-ray ( must have X-ray vision!) prescribed codine and advised to limit fluid intake!!!
To say I am both shocked and appalled by treatment received is an understatement. Imperial can look forward to a complaint.
