Appalling assessment of EDS

Story from nhs.uk

"Appalling assessment of EDS"

About: Addenbrooke's Hospital / Dermatology

Years ago diagnosed with EDS. Sent here for review. Patronising, condescending manner. Questions asked, answers ignored, questions repeated.Complete lack of empathy. Told no longer hypermobile despite still fulfilling Beighton Criteria.Review a waste of NHS money. Apathy and disinterest in issues. Waiting area very hot, chairs very hard for someone with back issues. Basically fobbed off by disinterested specialist.
