What I liked
Generally nice people, just seemed they were in too much of a rush to take my case seriously.
What could be improved
I went to A&E after a serious head on collision in a rugby game too get checked out. I was in serious pain, my back kept locking up and struggled walking. The Dr gave me a prod and a poke and just said the compression of the spine caused my muscles in my back to spasm. I was in and out within 3 minutes, he never gave me time of day. He told me to rest and ice it, which i did. 6 months later i was still having problems with my back so went privately, went through neccessary scans and found out i had a fracture on my spine. Sheer negligence on behalf of the the guy who saw me. You would have thought they would have just given me a scan.
Anything else?
Yes my back has finally got better 16months later.
Never going there again.
