I know everyone will have had a bad experience (I know I have) but generally, I think we're so lucky.
I've been to one hospital today as an emergency and been referred elsewhere. I don't have to pay to see a doctor, the staff have been absolutely lovely (which I hope they will also be at the other hospital) and I was seen immediately. We even had a laugh about my ridiculously sized elephant foot :)
I know prescriptions can seem expensive, but really, that's the only bit we pay for upfront so to speak (and most people don't pay for their prescriptions, I'm told).
Hoping for another good experience at the next hospital anyway :) Yay for HCPs and the NHS.

To think the NHS is bloody wonderful and that we're very, very lucky?
