"AVOID Burnley Hospital if you call at all costs..."

About: Burnley General Hospital

Burnley hospital is thw worse hospital I have ever been to ... don't care about your matter just can't wait to get you off the phone or out of their hair ... !!

Wouldn't go here if it was the last place on earth.... first incident I went into early labour with back ache at 30 weeks.. give me steroids and a course of tablets ... told them I hadn't had my last set of tablets ( which helped prevent me going in labour ) they said I had a left it at that ... until I argued and argued that I hadn't and when they checked my book aparently someone wrote it down wrong by mistake ..!!! Abouslut joke .... rang up with server Itchyneas on my arm and hands.. told me it could be something to do with my liver or I could have a shingles ( currently 20 weeks pregnant ar this point ) then said I can't come in hospital incase it is shingles so use calomine lotion.... pfffttt .... !! Just an all round disgusting .. pointless Hospital ..... !!!!!
