I was really nervous about attending my appointment due to the nature of it but the nurses (Abi and Alison- I hope I got their names right!) made me feel at ease and were so informative. Thank you to the both of you for making my experience less nerve wracking!!
Appointment was made for me for a minor operation on my finger.. turns out it was another consultation to merely confirm it was required.. two months later and still no op, having taken a day off next Appointment mid January.. no wonder the nhs bleeding money.
Took my daughter to see podiatry as she is flat footed and wears insoles. As worn insoles since she was small . The lady who we saw tried to tell me she isnt flat footed she was very rude and aggressive every time I tried to speak to her she would talk over me didnt listen to anything I had to say about my child. At one point she said "im not talking to you im talking to her" her being my daughter . Was made to feel very uncomfortable Very rude and aggressive wouldn't go back there again .
I attended the eye clinic last week with an urgent follow up appointment. I arrived early and was met by a lovely, friendly receptionist. She immediately put me at ease. Shortly after I had my eye sight tested by a nice man. I was then called in by Josh for scans, who again was very friendly and welcoming. After a few more minutes I was seen by the consultant, Mr. Grassi. He was very professional and polite. The whole experience was absolutely brilliant thank you.
Had been advised by my gp to attend the Xray department at the ICC. The receptionist, Asma, was very nice and welcoming. The radiologist was also very pleasant and clear in her instructions. All in all it was a good experience.
Worst doctors ive ever had. Hearded in like cattel and thats if you can get an appointment Stand at reception and have to wait 5mins for them to finish there little chin wag before they speak to you. Then sit down and wait about 30mins past your appointment before you get seen. Not because they with a patient but because they prob on phone asking there other half whats for tea. Had about 5 different doctors in the past 3 years and not 1 of them know your history or do there homework prior to seeing you. Also since when have receptionists been able to look at your medical records. Doctor patient confidenciality is well and truely none existant in this place. My son has a major heart condition and they prescribed the wrong doseage medicine for him. I reverted to getting my prescription through pharmacy to you for my sciatica to save appointments for the more vulnerable . Now however the doctor just doesnt even bother acknowledging when i ask for a prescription. Why did my old doctor have to retire. He knew my life always asked how family was because we was all with him. True gent of a doctor from me being a kid. Even used visit my house to assess me when i was a child. Now you cant even get a doctor to say hello how are you these days. Just take a seat whats the problem , there u go off ya pop, again thats if you can get to see 1. I could go on with way more extreme like nearly killing my child as a baby fobbing us off with viruses when we knew better ourselves but just to long a story.
Saw my GP at 8.40 am advised to go the ICC for a xray , arrived at ICC at 9.07 , xray done and out for 9.30. The receptionist were friendly and efficient as was the radiographer. Very pleasant and seamless experience.
Took my 2 yr old today, he's flat footed, and lately I noticed his foot turning inwards a lot, arrived for the appointment and podiatrist had a bad attitude, she went on to say she doesn't see his foot turning in, but also said they turn inwards and it's normal for children that age, she was patronising asking did I not know that and didn't the health visitor not tell me, and in a condescending way said "every person on the planet goes through that stage" I told her sorry for wasting her time and she said it's okay, rather than reassuring me I hadn't wasted her time. She was arrogant and spoke to me like I was stupid. The previous podiatrist was great and pointed out he is more flat footed on his right foot, which today she said he is not, when I can quite clearly see he is, being flat footed myself.
