Seen recently by Harriet the nurse who is doing dressings and she has been fabulous. Feel very confident with her looking after me. She keeps me updated and is extremely helpful and personable.

Saw Locum doctor ( I do t know his name sorry) on 10th July for a cyst/ abscess on my chest and he was, I am sorry to say, quite useless. I was in so much pain and the abscess was huge nearly at bursting point. He asked me what it was and what I wanted to do… sent away with antibiotics and he said because I wasn’t at shivering and fever point ( ie it hadn’t burst) he didn’t want to send me to hospital. I ended up taking myself to A&E 5 days later and the doctor and the surgeon could not believe he hadn’t referred me as an urgent case. They operated and removed it immediately.
