waiting on physio appointment

"waiting on physio appointment"

About: University Hospital Hairmyres / Trauma & Orthopaedics (Wards 1 & 5)

(as a relative),

my dad has been waiting on a physiotherapy appointment since January. His leg has got  much worse since then. He now finds it very difficult to mobilise and has in fact fallen on one occasion. He was given a urgent appointment 3 weeks ago which is in may. I find  this disgusting and detrimental to my dads health.

Dear cass64

Sorry to hear that your dad has been waiting and that he has fallen in this time. In order for me to look into this could you call me on 01698 366440 to give me more detail.

Thanks in advance
