I had to rebook my appointment with ENT as it was our daughters graduation . The original appointment was a telephone consultation. I was surprised to find the new appointment was face to face but was pleased as my symptoms had become significantly worse since my original tests.
I arrived at the hospital which was clearly indicated on my letter that I was to attend the department at pilgrim hospital only to find that I had been sent the wrong letter and in actual fact my appointment was a phone call! The staff did arrange for me to use one of their rooms to take the call which lasted all of a few minutes. But considering where I live and it was a 60 mile round trip I had not only wasted my time but also a considerable amount of money on fuel! Apparently the mistake is a usual occurrence. This needs looking at especially in the current financial situation!
