Share review of Cleveland Clinic London Hospital
There was a very long delay in my procedure being completed and when I was asked to come in. I hadn't eaten since before 10am on the morning of my procedure and went down after 20:00 I was starving.
I also didn't have anything to drink from before 14:00 either.
I understand that delays happen but I was not informed until I asked why the delay and by that time, it was too late for me to eat or drink anything.
I am sure the delay was known in advance and could have been factored in to patients (me) waiting.
Overall, everyone was brilliant but the lady who checked me in on the ground floor.. I have forgotten her name was lovely. I was very nervous and she saw this... even under the mask and was very calming. I didn't get asked how I felt once up on the ward how I was feeling or if I was nervous.
