"Not happy"

About: Royal Bolton Hospital / Gynaecology

My girlfriend rang concerned about a pain in her stomach on Tuesday and got referred to this hospital from her GP, they took over 2 hours to get her bloods then sent her home informing her that she was to come back tomorrow for a scan, she had to take the day off work unpaid to come to the hospital to then be told she isn’t having the scan until Thursday and won’t recieve the results by Friday so she had to take a further 2 days off work, resulting in 3 days off work unpaid. My girlfriend asked if she was able to have the scan at another hospital closer to where she works to avoid the days off and the blunt answer she recieved was “No.” Arriving on Friday (today) she was told the doctor who gave her the scan did it incorrectly and now has to take ANOTHER day off work to come back in for another scan, this is beyond a joke 4 days off unpaid due to doctors not doing their job properly in the first place and giving false information saying she was to have the scan on Wednesday when she had it Thursday instead, inconsistencies from these doctors now have resulted in 4 days of unpaid leave and my girlfriend now worring about not being able to afford her bills. Absolute joke
