Clearly not not all is as it should be at Chapel Allerton. After attending this hospital very many times & enduring a distinct atmosphere especially in rheumatology departments that trainee Doctors do not feel as free to treat patients as they should be !? Sorry but i just got the feeling over and over again that there are uncaring controlling bully's at this hospital.
As a patient i felt intimidated & not able to discus my health freely at all at this hospital for the fact the Doctors i saw did not seem free to treat as they felt was needed.
There is a distinct intertwined research element to this hospital, and i felt like i was just an inconvenience and after though to the next research trip abroad. I was left feeling uncared for at this hospital. Even the radiology department has issues. My first visit to radiology was lovely and one lady even offered me a cup of tea. But on another occasion i encountered a most ignorant male book in staff member who just refused to look down on the counter when i put my appointment letter down in-front of his face so he could see my name and appointment time, because i can not always be heard very well due to disability, but all he did was refuse to look down at
my letter and asked " name " ?.
Plus he was having music playing too loudly in the waiting room tv i think it was. Just really obnoxious.
Should a patient ever have to leave a review like this ?
"Incredibly uncaring"
