We all hear about hospitals and doctores being sued for grossincompetence and neglligence.
My own experience of a Negligent Health Service comes form earlier this year and before that. I'd been having inexplicable pains in my left side for a few years. Every time I saw a doctor they just fobbed me off with painkillers that didn't work, despite me telling them that.. Anyway, thigs got to a point this year when |I went again, told them what the problem was and they said there was nothing wrong with me deppite me telling them I kept on having the same pains three times a day, every day. A coupile of weeks later, I HAD to be taken to the hospital TWICE by ambulance in the samer week and still got the same depite me telling them that there was something wrong somewhere and I knew there was. Anyway two weeks later, I ended up in another hopsital where they found out what the problem was (build up of stimach acidand these pains really hurt).
Now the doctor's decided that that I'm not due an inhaler for my athsma yet. Im know when I'm due for an inhaler and it won't be the doctor gasping for breath and needing an inhaler.
There was another case recently where somebody contracted aids after being injected with a needle which had been dropped and picked off on the floor and used on him.

Do you live on the European or Asian side of the Urals and are you planning on taking part in the great peoples emancipation of Ukraine from the evils of NATO influence?

this needs more detail adding - are they refusing to sign the repeat prescription?

you'd best have a link for that otherwise folks are going to think you're telling lies.
 
The NHS is a great idea which has been allowed to rot from the inside. The Gov keep pushing for targets which bloats an already huge middle manager setup (plus all the extras to support them) and the amount of fiscal recklessness & waste is mind blowing.

Sadly its untouchable in today's society when really it needs the bloat stripping back to basics, Gov control stripping away and a different approach to what is "necessary".

But none of that will happen and it'll continue to consume more money whilst providing a barely adequate service, despite the hard work and effort of the medical staff.

What bloat do you actually think is there?

Most international comparisons have the NHS pegged as one of or the most efficient health systems in the world.

Note I said efficient and not most effective. While we get more out of every £spent than most comparable systems, our outcomes lag well behind because it’s just generally underfunded and doesn’t have the resources it needs to perform at that level.
 
NHS doing a fine job for me and my family. 4 hospital visits over the last 2 months (at short notice) and 2 more due in the next few weeks. Can't fault them. They've been brilliant.

Spain, Cyprus and Greece and the U.S. (Texas) None of which was comparable to our NHS in my experience, especially if you don’t have medical insurance.

My family have experienced foreign health care in Australia, New Zealand, Malta, Austria, Germany, a few mid-African countries, and the US. I wouldn't say the NHS is worse than any of those, and I would certainly rather have it than the US or African equivalents.
