I had been suffering with dry ears and an ear infection. My doctor referred me to the ENT at the Hallamshire.
I attended what turned out to be the clinic and never saw a doctor. Infected ear given a very quick washout and told it would take two or three attempts to clear it, told I would receive an appointment in 12 weeks. Dryneess which turned out to be dermatitis, which was eventually diagnosed by my own GP 4 months later completely ignored.
Left Hallamshire completely deaf in infected ear, which stayed the same for almost a month.
4 months on I still have the ear infection/blockage in my ear and am still waiting for a return appointment despite numerous visits to my own GP's who say they have wrote to the Hallamshire.
