Struggling to get an appointment

Been to Good Hope hospital to see eye consultant. After Covid phoned hospital and they said they will have to get letter from GP. She thinks that the appointment letter has been sent to a old address. She is struggling to get an appointment with eye consultant since last 2 years due to Covid and her vision is getting worse.

Had follow-up appointments at the fracture clinic at Good Hope following an operation at Heartlands. Sometimes long waiting times but always received considerate and reassuring advice from the consultant.

Last year I had Kidney Cancer during lockdown, without the hospital s in the Trust, I would have been in dire straits. As GP was rubbish, didn't see them at all, not even after I phoned them for a test result which they had had for months, containing the knowledge of my tumour, which got read over the phone. ! Every hospital I went to was brilliant.
Waited 12 months to see a consultant
October 7, 2021
I had to wait over 12 months to be seen by a consultant, who couldn’t examine me because of the pain I was in, who then sent me an appointment 8 weeks, if I hadn’t phoned up and said I couldn’t wait that long, I would be in more pain,
Good great staff

Getting any information is nightmare

Treatment of patients is good. Treatment of relatives is awful. A patient who is elderly, confused , bedbound and is unable to use a phone is just left with no communication with relatives. Getting any information from ward 11 is a nightmare.
So worried at not knowing
Gynaecology

After an ovarian cyst was discovered. After having bloods take, I was told ( by letter) I had an appointment to see consultant in clinic for February 2021. This was cancelled due to COVID ( which I understood) however, at the end of July ( and many phone calls to enquire about my appointment) I received a letter stating that I had an appointment in September. Great I thought thankfully, but THE VERY NEXT DAY I received another letter cancelling That appointment??? I rang to see if there was an explanation, no I was told, just “ clinic cancelled” and that I was back on the waiting list. As I know very little about ovarian cysts but do know it is approx 7 cm, which to me seems rather large. I need to know (a) do I need more blood test to see if cancerous? Do I need a further scan to see if it has grown, can this cause the terrible back pain I am suffering with. So worried at not knowing.
