"visit to a&e on 2 March at about 7.30pm"

About: Tameside General Hospital

I was seen in a&e at around 9.30pm. The doctor was amazing. I have allergies to most painkillers except paracetamol and I had broken a rib and was in excruciating pain. The doctor took the time to find a suitable painkiller that was going to be effective and not cause an allergic reaction. Having visited a&e previously it was extremely refreshing to see a true professional who has literally given me a pain reliever that actually works instead of fobbing me off with "poor you, off you go". I cant thank the doctor enough.
