"Unprofessional disorganised department"

About: Colchester General Hospital / Neurology

I waited 8 months to see a consultant and this was after I had been admitted to A/E for a suspected stroke.

When I finally got to see a locum I had no MRI no tests and no definitive treatment plan expect a referral for a dementia assessment ha ha !

I have haemaplegic migraine and fibromyalgia hence foggy brain when I did a series of tests!

I was then told i would receive a 3 month review appointment.

I am still waiting for this in April !

Terrible service would not recommend
