This is Care Opinion [siteRegion]. Did you want Care Opinion [usersRegionBasedOnIP]?

"Big Thank You"

About: Soho Walk in Centre

i was in London for the weekend and had to visit the clinic with a recurring poisoned finger.. i had already been treated in Glasgow the day before but finger became worse after travelling.. i was in horrific pain..

I saw the triage nurse who said they could help me.. she was lovely.

After a bit of a wait i saw another nurse.. who checked my finger and said she thought it looked much more serious.. draining wouldnt help.. this lovely lady asked another colleague for a 2nd opinion to make sure she was correct and they both agreed i needed to see a plastic surgeon at hospital.

Rosa then called a couple of hospitals and spoke to the surgeon personally to explain the situation..

I eventually got to hospital an saw the surgeon and they admitted me right away and put me on an IV antibiotics and got me a bed.. she said i had a very bad infection and had it been left longer and spread i could have lost my finger.. this was at the Royal free hospital..

I was kept in over night where they cut and cleaned out my wound and next morning i had to have my nail removed.. not a pleasant experience to have .. but i have been suffering this for a year now and no one has taken the time or care that the nurses and doctors and hospital staff at the clinic or the Royal free did

so i would like to say a massive Thank You to one particular staff member and the staff at the clinic in Soho and at the Royal Free hospital for helping me out.. it is much appreciated .. i am very grateful for the care and kindness show to me

Merry Xmas
