Had an operation here, was told to come in at 7:30. As soon as I arrived I was told to change into my operation scrubs.
They made me wait until 3pm to actually look at me.
Such bad time management, I don’t understand where I wasn’t told to come at a later time on top of which I could eat or drink from the night before since I had a “morning” operation.
I went toilet and stayed into my scrubs from 7am until 3pm and when asked if I can get a new one the nurse said “no you are fine”
It’s now been more 2 months post operation,
I am in a worst position that I was before I went in. I still can’t walk and in more pain than before. I had my 6 weeks follow up and asked if when / if will go back to my pre surgery condition, the doctor actually said “I’m not a fortune teller, I can’t tell you that”
I don’t understand why they even suggested to have an operation when it’s made my life quality decreases so much. I’m in a worst place now than I was before going in.
You’re best to go elsewhere cause this hospital doesn’t look after you.
