I arrived on time for my 12 o'clock appointment sat and waited 5 hours only then to be told my procedure was cancelled as it's now 5 o'clock and operations are finished. My husband was brought in to a room and told we have some news for you he naturally thought something was wrong and was told of the cancellation. We were both fuming as I have a serious kidney Problem was I hadn't had a drink for 11 hours and was feeling very dehydrated and whoozy.
I also had to stop blood thinning medication for 3 days prior to this procedure, not good as I'm prone to getting blood clots.
Meant to have a phone call from them this morning NOTHING. I am appalled at this service.
