"Would leave 0 I could"

About: Southend Hospital / Gynaecology

Waited 4 months for an appointment to talk to a "specialist" doctor who was clueless about my condition. Waited 1hr and 45 mins for my appointment. Made me come off my meds to retest bloods because they didn't have the results of the last ones! (I had them in my handbag) told to revisit in 2 months and saw a different Dr who also didn't have a clue about the condition took 1 hr and 20mins for my appointment. 3hrs and 5 mins of my life I'll never get back and an unnecessary blood test. Still no help the Dr's are useless could have got more info reading a leaflet off the internet. Don't use them if possible nowhere to park either
