I'm diabetic but went 8 hours without food

"I'm diabetic but went 8 hours without food"

About: The Princess Royal Hospital / Gastroenterology

(as the patient),

All the staff were brilliant, right from the receptionist to the nursing staff.

My only issue was the waiting time for the procedure I needed. I'm insulin dependent and diabetic, and went 8 hours without food because of the wait in between patients.

I thought this may have been organised better.

Thanks so much for taking the time to let us know about this, both the brilliant staff but also the difficulties that you faced with managing your diabetes. This is clearly something we can improve on.
