OK if you like staff being rude behind your back

"OK if you like staff being rude behind your back"

About: Russells Hall Hospital

Having just had a scan, the staff where most at all interested that I was having chest pain, just asked to keep still. Never forwarn you if you a medical condition causes chronic pain they just jolt the bed. Only interested in making fun of patients where other patent can hear. You don't even need to actually go inside the hospital to experience this. Just be on a bus outside when staff off the wards go home. You would not want to enter in the first place. Also hope you don't get the arrogant doctors seeing you in clinic. Tried to treat the wrong body part!
