Never Again! I am…read moregoing to write about the worst experience I have even had at the hands of a Doctor in a Hospital. The Whittington Hospital to be precise. His name is Dr. Joquau Kravvas from Thesalonica Greece, and he possesses the worst kind of Greek Male Mysogony that exists. I was greeted with "Why are you wearing two jumpers"? It is very cold possible the coldest day of the year I replied. He explained nothing about the treatment I had gathered from the nurse that he was about to remove some red skin that could possible develop into a cancerous growth, in the event it did not. Dr. Brarrack joked with the nurse that he would 'Have To Remove Half Of My Face' due to what he could see. I certainly hoped not. He drilled ferociously for half an hour. It was relentless. I hope I would;d not be scarred for life. The nurse said the scar would bleed for a week or so. It went on to bleed for over six weeks, I had to visit the A&E of UCHL during the Xmas break as it bled soo much throughout the dressing and I woke up to blood on my pillow for six weeks. This was embarrassing as I was staying with relatives for some of the holiday, Three months late the scar is still there. I wrote an honest review of my treatment and mentioned his name. He had it removed. But I doubt that Yelp will allow vanity struck doctors like him to remove an honest review. I like the nurses in the Dermatology dept. and I like the Italian coffee and soup stand that is parked in front of the Whittington, but I never want to set eyes on Joqau Barrack as long as I live. And I would not wish him to cut a biopsy into anyone\s cheek. Not even in Harley Street which he arrogantly brags about. He drilled by cheek with the ferocity of a farmer drilling a carcass,

This place might have a nice canteen and a well-stocked shop as other reviewers have mentioned...but the most important thing (for me) is to let poorly folks escape as soon as they can! Anyway...I had to come to Whittington for a chest x-ray and blood tests. I'd never been here before, but there were helpful staff at reception to point me in the right direction. X-ray time: - I had a note from my doctor, so I managed to register in less than 5 minutes. - They gave me a buzzer, so I could take a seat by their huge windows and look down to the shard and London skyline. - The buzzer went off in just a few minutes - Next I had to wait outside the x-ray rooms...this was less than 5 minutes as well... - The staff were friendly, but speedy (and I exited out of a different door after changing out of my robe...so the whole process was really streamlined.) Blood test time: - This time I just had to take a ticket (at 10:30am I was 10th in line.) - They had so many staff in each of the rooms, that even this was less than 15 minutes wait. - The staff here were friendly and chatty too (although they were also speedy stars) This meant I was out of hospital within an hour, even though I didn't have appointments in advance. Amazing. Other than that, they have friendly reception staff *gasps*, friendly and efficient nurses...and the whole place seems new and clean.

Dr Dong Li should not be allowed to see patients without a senior doctor and it should not matter how busy everyone at the hospital is. He is intellectually not equipped to hold a consultation with a patient. Lacks emotional intelligence also. "My love" is not how to address a patient in a conversation. I have left the Hospital outraged about his dismissive from of advising me as a patient, not to forget to mention that he gave me a cancer scare. Before mis-diagnosing a fibroid as cancer... might be worth asking the patient if she has experience undesired, rapid weight loss.?! I regret having seen him and can say for sure, my therapy plan or outcome would have been different, have I seen a different doctor.

It was midnight before friend was seen to but the staff were quite nice to her when they did see her and wrote her a prescription. I had almost fallen asleep before she came out.

I initially put it down to a typo and asked for it to be corrected in line with the GDPR and GMC guidelines that state records must be accurate an honest. The hospital refused. So a patient's word counts for nothing, if your title is Dr you can falsify patient records and your employer will support you. I find this so insane, Veronica's claim doesn't sound plausible, doesnt have a ring of truth and is just plain unbelievable. She and the hospital know they are putting my health at risk by denying me the care to which I am entitled. I wouldnt care if I wasnt forced to fund this charade; but we pay the salaries of the people who literally hate us and want us dead.

Sat in the Emergency/Urgent care waiting area for four hours before I was told there is no treatment for my symptoms and just sent home. I told the receptionist I was there because I thought I had the flu. I told the healthcare professional that took my temperature and blood pressure that I was there because I thought I had the flu. Neither of them told me that they don't treat my symptoms. It wasn't until I saw a doctor after four hours of waiting that I was told there is nothing to be done about the flu. The doctor was rude, too. I told him I didn't go to class because I didn't want to get anyone sick. He said, "So you came here to get the doctor sick?" THE DOCTOR IS WHO YOU SEE WHEN YOU ARE SICK. THAT IS YOUR JOB. He asked what I ate that day and the judged what I had to eat that day, "It's pretty odd to be eating that" when I'm feeling this way (Ok, so I'll starve myself. Oh wait, already did that in the waiting room). I left with nothing to help me feel better and humiliated enough to want to kill myself :)

But on a better note - if that child is in Great Ormond Street, you can be very confident that everything is going to be okay. Because this place might just be one of the most magical places in the world. This is where miracles happen. This is where the greatest Doctors and Nurses in the world are. This is a hospital where kids are kept entertained by clowns and hospital radio, this is the place where children with the worst diseases get healed and where research is carried out to make sure even more get healed in the future. It's a depressing fact that children get ill. You'd think prior to creation that God could have at least made a minimum age for illnesses as 18 or something. Unfortunately, that's not the case, but rest assured this place is doing everything it can to rectify matters.

I think the use of technology and…read moreresearch in the hospital means that they can provide services which can't be obtained anywhere else, but in my experience their nursing care is very variable and the cleaning and catering are just as variable as elsewhere in the UK. My son spent long periods of time in the hospital and we had some horrendous experiences here: his blood pressure wasn't checked after an operation for eight hours (until I demended it should be), he was nearly given a double dose of paracetamol (and would have been if I hadn't argued with a nurse), we spent hours listenin to other patient's TVs at top volume even late at night, and the ensuite bathrooms attached to some of the rooms he stayed in were little short of disgusting. I'd say don't expect the worst... but don't expect the best either.

What was, I think, several separate towers, have been joined by a lofty atrium. There's now seating areas on the ground floor where you can sit in peace.

One thing to note is that the entrance that way (via a pedestrian walkway from the station: ask station staff to direct you), is actually on the second floor. If you don't remember that on your way out and head down to the ground floor it makes it just a little confusing!

The first time, I saw the triage nurse, got sent to a GP on site, only to be referee back to A&E and admitted for a week. The care was excellent over the week from the other nurses, but I was just restless. The second time, I had to wait in A&E for over two hours after waiting for blood samples to be taken. The triage nurse was very rude, however the Dr was lovely, taking an interest in my profession and having a chat about Brexit! If you didn't know it was a hospital, St Helier looks a bit like a prison with its fading white walls and unkept exterior. It's been kind of decorated inside though so it's not all bad!

The care I received was excellent, from Nurses, Doctors and Consultants, and I consider the hospital as the best among the ten+ hospitals that I have been treated in. Every two or three days, my bed and furniture were moved around the ward, so that total cleaning of all floors, walls, and ceilings could take place. This was to prevent MRSA, which was, and is, very common in almost new hospitals, which are probably cleaned a lot less often. The food is pretty good, including in the cafeteria. The late Goon, Harry Secombe was a fan of this hospital and he equipped it with one of the first CAT scans in England.
