"A & E"

About: Arrowe Park Hospital

Having been sent to A & E by NHS 111, who were concerned I may have had an aneurysm in my stomach, I was seen by a doctor who clearly had not bothered to read my notes properly. The doctor was rude and unhelpful and I've been sent home in pain without any diagnostic tests being carried out. No attempt was made to listen to my history of aneurysms and a genetic predisposition to them. Very concerning.
