Saved our son's life after missed symptoms

The medical staff were the sole bright spot in this ordeal. After our 5-month-old underwent surgery and wasn't acting normally, we were initially denied an appointment and told to call back the next day. My fiancée took matters into her own hands and brought him to the hospital, utilizing his open PDU access. Within 10 minutes, he was hooked up to heart monitors, receiving needles and various treatments. They transformed the ward into an ICU for him, informing us he was critically ill. The following day, he was transferred to Newcastle Children's Hospital via emergency vehicles, and we were told he might not have survived if we had waited as the doctors initially suggested. He's now on specialized hospital milk, and we're struggling with the prescription process. The doctors must continuously send the prescription to our pharmacy, as the milk requires special ordering and takes days to obtain. They've now complicated the process, refusing phone or email prescription requests and insisting we physically visit the clinic with a paper request, even for a monthly recurring prescription. When we questioned accessibility for those unable to visit, they suggested sending someone else - a completely unacceptable response that demonstrates a shocking lack of patient consideration.
