After having had an injury at work making me bedbound, I was referred to the pain clinic at SGH. It took about 4 Weeks to get an assessment appointment and another 3 months to actually get the treatment (injections). I am due for another assessment. Waiting for almost 6 months to get an appointment, although I made a written request stating my condition was getting bad. Less than 24 hours before this appointment, I receive a phonecall saying this appointment has to be cancelled due to the doctor not being available, and will be sent another appointment. I am annoyed and frustrated with the way I am being treated. I am not in a position to afford private treatment , Is there another alternative? Orval Monteiro Pain Clinic appointment.
