I was sent for a surgical assessment following a back injury to the huntsman building, I was in absolute agony as my back had gone into spasm, The doc said he would arrange some pain relief imediately, 3 hours later it never came, I was assed and told i needed a scan, agin no pain relief, another 3 hours i was sent for a scan, After i begged for some pain relieg, and i was given two paracetamol, The doctor came and said oh its nothing its just a back spasm, I said that was my diagnosis 7 yrs ago and following the next day i was admmited for emergency surgery, They just shrugged their shoulders and said I will prescribe you some pain relief, I asked how long it would take as i had been their 7 hours, was told it will take approximately 3 hours as "were busy". I said forget it, and got my brother to take me home. biggest excuse i have seen for a hospital in yorkshire, The doctors appear to be unquallified and very unorganized, Ive made a complaint to my docs and stated they must never ever send me to that place again
"Most unprofessional hospital ive ever been in"
