Still waiting....

Story from nhs.uk

"Still waiting...."

Anything else?

I have been undergoing consultation with the Urology Dept at the QE2 since May 2010. I have had to wait months and months for follow up appointments - the consultant tells me he wants me back in 4-6 weeks and after 6 months I'm still waiting for an appointment. I last saw my consultant on Sept 20th 2012 and was told I would be seen again in 6 weeks. As of today, Feb 26th 2013 I am still waiting for an appointment. Ridiculous.
