After half an hour of waiting the nurse dressed in pale blue came out of the consulting room and announced that the clinic was running three quarters of an hour late because of a difficult patient. I do not feel it is appropriate to use this term.
When I was finally see after a further hours wait, the room was dirty, the consultant did not really engage in discussion or want to answer my questions. He dismissed my concern about catching an infection on my previous visit. He did not wash his hands either before or after examining me and when questioned dismissed my concern by saying he uses disposable instruments. The state of the cabinet and particularly the bin tell their own story about hygiene.
