Walk in "wounded"

Story from nhs.uk

"Walk in "wounded""

About: Trafford General Hospital

When on Easter Sunday I found myself in great pain(jaw and ear) I visited TW-I centre. As it was the biggest Bank Holiday of the year I expected a huge queue and to wait for many hours.

To my relief although there was a packed Waiting room patients were seen quickly by a number of GPS.

I received excellent treatment, explanation of what I was suffering from and great advice.

The Prescription I was given was made up immediately at the Chemist opposite the hospital.

What I anticipated as being a lengthy wait for diagnosis and treatment was no different from a normal weekday appointment at my GP surgery.

I don't recommend becoming ill, particularly on a Bank holiday, but I would recommend the Walk in if you need urgent attention.
