"foot care"

About: Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust

The footcare at Glebefields is not up to scratch, most of my foot care has been delayed from 3 months to four months because of shortage of staff de to sickness and when I was sized up for insoles in my shoes

I was told they would be ready in 3 weeks, they did not appear and when I phoned again the excuse was sickness and shortage of staff.

This excuse is not good enough and surely sickness needs to be investigated at this establishment.

I am still waiting for my insoles.
