I was going to say similar Sue! Perhaps the Consultant was held up in theatre before the clinic started, or perhaps during the clinic he had to give a patient or even more than one patient some upsetting news... Unfortunately this is the nature of the beast in O/P clinics.


You could contact PALS if you feel it warrants a complaint: http://www.kch.nhs.uk/patients/services/pals/






Edited for stoopid spelling;-)

Had an appointment at the fracture clinic once at 8am - did not get seen until 1pm. I just supposed that they did not deliberatley keep me waiting and read a book!


Just remember that before the labour government got in you would have been sat at home waiting for 3 years before even going in to get seen!

See my signature thingy below for more info.

My ma has just had a full month of radiotherapy, not only a bus-train-bus trip for a 72 year old, but also regularly waited 1 hour, 2 hours even after having a timed appointment. Difficult, the place was really busy, the staff lovely and caring after eventually going in, and she is thankfully on the mend. Not so long ago it would have been a different story...

I have been very impressed with the paediatric A&E - they were brilliant with my 2am unannounced arrival a couple of weeks ago.


Can't say the same about the prenatal scanning though - I know its the best in the world etc, etc but hours and hours of waiting in a hot room with not enough seats when you are pregnant is vile. I don't understand why they run so late, even when you have, say a morning timed appointment. I never had that problem with Tommies.

The Car park is a massive problem but they can't get planning permission from Lambeth to build a multi storey. If EVERYONE wrote to lambeth Council Planning department and demanded they give permission, they would have to take notice. I'm a motorcyclist so I could give a damn.

    • Defo, where are you based so I can collect?
    • There is no other way than to move out. I am in such a situation myself where our neighbours are complete assholes. They breached the Covenants and when we pointed it they said to take them to court if we want.  Unfortunately, they have made our life miserable and we have to move out.    What helped in our situation is having a calm conversation face to face. It only happened after they tasted their own medicine(i know it's mean but nothing else helps).   I know it's unfair but better move out and prioritise your mental health. 
    • Thank you so much for the reply. Jeffery turned up a couple of hours ago. I edited title to say found but somehow it didn't save. Thank you so much for going to the trouble of posting this sighting... even if it didn't turn out to be Jeff.  Jeff came running down the street like a bat out of hell and ran into the house. Never been so relieved. Mind you i've been up and down the roads shouting his name out all day. Even in Wingfield street. 🤗
    • I saw a smallish black cat outside 1 Wingfield Street just now.  I am not convinced it was Jeff, the eyes look a little different.
