About: Darent Valley Hospital

Last week I was called to A&E after having a blood test early in the day by a on call doctor as my potassium was very high its a on going condition,in A&E they was lovely and treated me well, after being in mayors for a few hours was taken to redwood ward the nurses was caring, in the morning doctor doing the ward round as made me feel as if I should not have been there and in the discharge letter he made it sound as if I was a hypochondriac saying reason for admission ( white coat hypertension ) which was not true

I did not go to the hospital I was ask to go in fact the doctor told me to call a ambulance but I said no and got my brother in law to take me, the doctor was really mean and uncaring, a kind word and a smile cost nothing,
