Excellent treatment, horrendous waiting times

Treatment is excellent. The waiting time in A&E is horrendous. 12 hours. I was seen every 4 hours but was a long long time.

My sister couldn't get an MRI

November 15, 2023
My sister went for an MRI scan for a serious issue. She got scared when she was in the MRI and pressed the button to get out because she found it claustrophobic. The hospital then arranged for her to get a bigger MRI check but she still didn't like it so she didn't have it. There wasn't a follow up from the doctor or the hospital after being referred from her GP. She hasn't received any extra services or help after that MRI appointment.

Another procedure needed due to their error

November 14, 2023
Attended for the 5th attempt at ERCP to break and remove stones from my bile duct. They were able to get them all out this time but failed to notice that my gallbladder had already been removed so they left a stent in. I now have to have another procedure to have the stent removed.
