Whilst I appreciate I arrived with only a minor injury, I waited over three hours and still didn't see a triage nurse. As it was now 3 am I went home and returned the next day. I saw an excellent triage nurse and nearly four hours later saw a rather odd doctor, who seemed to have little idea on how to treat me and who have very poor use of English. I wasn't very reassured and was glad to see someone more senior. I did not mind waiting but would have liked further information. If my minor injury could have been treated elsewhere I would have been very happy to leave. I was given a wholly inaccurate idea of waiting time. I was told two hours, which turned into four.
