I have been referred to endocrinology specialist couple months ago. Received appointment letter which has been cancelled. The second apointment was cancelled very last minute again. I lost 2 work days.
Also after speaking to secretary I was informed waiting list is 20 + weeks which is nearly 6 months if I am lucky...
One consultant is off sick, another one on leave so County Hospital has no endocrinologist covering at all!
So if I had cancer and was waiting for investigations or diagnosis by 6 months time it would be too late to do anything...
Very disappointing.
