I would gladly award a lower rating due to the immense emotional strain this surgical experience inflicted, but the circumstances prevent me from doing so. Seeking medical care here is futile. While the reception staff are pleasant, the doctors and nurse practitioners display a shocking lack of empathy. In January, following a GP consultation, I was prescribed incorrect medication. Upon returning with no improvement, a different GP declared the initial prescription was wrong. They provided alternative medication. After two days and my condition worsening, I went to A&E and was hospitalized for five nights. At each stage, medical staff confirmed the GP's initial approach was incorrect. I should have been referred to podiatry during the first visit, and subsequently sent to hospital. Had I continued following their initial guidance, I risked losing my toes or feet. Post-hospital admission, when I contacted the GP about medication sensitivity, they casually suggested I no longer needed medication, having completed a treatment course, without even examining me. This was contrary to my hospital discharge plan. This medical practice seems to needlessly escalate medical conditions, giving the impression that contemporary doctors have become completely indifferent to patient welfare.
