"Not satisfied.."

About: Manchester Royal Eye Hospital

Anything else?

The appointment system is far from satisfactory. I was supposed to be reviewed at the Glaucoma clinic every 6 months but eventually was seen after 15 months. This was despite having to attend the emergency clinic which I thought would have raised my risk factor but evidently didn't. Other appointments have been cancelled several times and sometimes at very short notice. Whilst I am happy about the care I receive once I am seen by the medical staff I am less so re the monitoring process and the ability of the hospital to keep appointments.
