I received my appointment for 5th September quickly (cancer scare). I had to have a biopsy of my womb and then a pelvic scan a few days later. The lady who did the colposcopy was very friendly and got on with the job in hand efficiently, though there was no mention of consultant who I was actually under. I was told I would be written to with the results when I mentioned I’d been through similar 2.5 years ago and never got any results, even when I chased them. I was also concerned to see I had a new empty file when I have lived in Lincoln all of my life and have had a child and normally have a fairly thick file. The lady didn’t know why it was empty. I went for a scan the following week 10th September, the lady who did this was aloof and unfriendly, I felt uncomfortable and couldn’t wait to get away. I have been chasing results ever since, to no avail. when I called in at my doctors they told me I have to chase the hospital, when I phone the hospital (gynaecology) the phone is always engaged, the one time it wasn’t nobody answered and it rang out, I called straight back and it was engaged again. I don’t know what the answer is and I’m hoping this means I’m well. I’m writing this review in frustrating and wondering if this will provoke a response, though I’m not holding my breath.
"Getting results of biopsy and scan is impossible."
