Waited 2 months with abdominal pain and bleeding after referral from A&E to visit consultant Surgeon in Gastroenterology department , visit took place on 29 July 2014 from this date no follow up appointment has been made and is now been 2 months , I called secretary on 16/09 and reception D and they confirmed no appointment has been made so far so I asked for one, Still haven't received. During this time I had Gastroscopy and Colonoscopy and been diagnosed with very nasty crohn disease, Now can't get proper treatment because I need to have biopsy results of which the consultant has and I can't get appointment because administration team failed to do so. Now I am booked private specialist but still need biopsy results from consultant and can't get it : I wrote the letter with request to send me copy of biopsy , nothing , called reception 15 times in 3 days nobody answer, sent email to consultant, nothing. So please if some one reading this review please sent me my Medical record urgent, because I have will see soon Private specialist that I paid 100£ . So I am trying contact consultant for the past 2 weeks ,I should have follow up appointment at Queen Elizabeth Hospital but secretary and reception faild to arrange it. Now I am running out of time , I have left letter to you at Queen Elizabeth Hospital outpatient department , I also spoke with the secretary who advised me to write to the consultant about sending to me my biopsies results from 24 Aug 2014. This not acceptable that I can't access my medical records, I have appointment in next 12 days with other specialist and they are urgent needed.
