Went on a sunday afternoon after suffering a suspected TIA (which was very scary) nurse did quick assessment to make sure it wasnt a stroke, however took at least 2 hours to get seen after that. Was there for a total of 4 hours (if not slightly more). Experience was good, and was reassured. However, after care has been ridiculous. Its now been over two weeks since i was told i was being 'referred to a TIA clinic' and nothing so today I tried ringing. 4 calls later I managed to get through, then put through to the JR, who had no record of my referral. So after a scary ordeal, two weeks of me agonising over this, I havent even been referred to the department I need to see. I now cant get through to the Horton on the phone, it just rings out and I give up after 10 minutes. I know that I am young and probably considered 'low risk' but this is ridiculous.
