I attended my GP who referred me to an Orthotist.
They agreed to arrange a scan for my foot, I waited 8 weeks and heard nothing so chased this up before my agreed follow up appt: this was surprisingly booked the same day but in the a.m. at a different hospital of my follow up appt.
From my follow up appt I was internally referred to Orthotics, again 8 weeks later I still hadn't heard anything and called to chase this up. To my surprise the referral was never made and the person I spoke to had to email the worker to make an Urgent referral.
This is twice I have been advised by Orthotist that something was done but hadn't been, poor service provided.
