It took about 3 weeks to get an appointment with my doctor. When I saw him I was referred to the hospital and told to expect to hear from them soon.
After a few weeks my condition was worsening and I still hadn’t heard back so I rang my surgery. They checked and said the original referral had been ‘overlooked’ and was told they have a lot of new patients to cater for! This is no excuse in my view.
It’s now 3 months since my symptoms started and I’m still waiting to be seen. I’m in a lot of pain and discomfort and am very disappointed by the delay in referring me and the overall treatment from my GP
