I was discharged the first week in July from Broomfield Hospital with the promise of a follow up appointment -one has never arrived. When I visited my surgery to get more tablets I had to wait half a day for my discharge summary to be faxed so that my GP could provide me with medication I urgently needed. I have phoned Broomfield hospital to get a follow up appointment this week as still not arrived. I was told the consultants name I had been given there were in fact 5 Doctors with that name did I want a Lady or a man or which one did I want, as my notes dont tell them! Again my GP is left to sort this out. No wonder you can never get a GP appointment they must be so bogged down with sorting out the hospitals lack of communication or administration! So now my GP is left supporting me while I wait.
