Worst Hospital Ever!!!

<p>On the 2nd of January 2017 I got involved in an accident and I went to Life Hospital. I got there after 10pm and I only got medical attention aroun 12 am. When enquiring about the waiting period I was told that they have only one Dr. I was injured in the face and due to the "shortage" on night shift I was mostly attended by wonderful nurnes. The Dr must have spent less than 5minutes. And I could clearly see that the Dr was in a rush to help other patients. The following week, I had to see my dr for more examinations, because I just was not in the mood to wait for atleast 2 hours before getting medical attention from that hospital. </p> <p> </p> <p>As a result, a month later I realised I still have glasses and had to go back to them to take the remaining glasses. Again I had to wait because they had to decide on whether to charge me or not. But I could not hear of it, they ended up not charging. Upon my return to work and medical certificate submission, I realised that the Dr only booked me for 2 days on the same of an accident. Despite having spent such a quick browse on my condition, the Dr on duty still found it found "adequate to book me for 2 days off work, I guess he must have forgotten about being swollen after an accident. I emailed them on several times to amend that but they refused.</p> <p>So pathethic and unthoughtful for a Dr to assume that I would be fit for work after only two days and the hospital's refusal to own up to their lack of professionalism. To say the least, it was my first and last time there, I felt like I was dealing with a public health facility. </p>
