About: Barnsley Hospital / Accident and emergency

Fracture clinic.

Was given three minutes with consultant and was written off.

I had an appointment to start physiotherapy after shoulder fracture.

His knowledge of English Language limited.

Told me it might never heal, but would give physio a try and discharged me referring me to physio unit.

Having to see another specialist at a cost I can barely afford, so much for paying into this system for almost 50 years.

By the way it looks like I have rotator cuff damage.

which was never mentioned at B H.
