Prior
to
my
latest
visit
here,
I
had
a
bad
experience
where
a
rushed
doctor
barely
checked
me
and
sent
me
home
-
but
I
ended
up
in
the
ER
the
next
day
with
difficulty
breathing
and
my
throat
nearly
blocked
in
relation
to
what
I
tried
to
get
checked
out
the
night
before.
With
that
being
said,
I
still
returned
to
this
clinic
in
thinking
that
perhaps
I
came
across
a
doc
that
was
too
rushed
and
since
the
clinic
is
close
to
my
home.
I
am
a
nurse
myself
and
understand
the
challenges
that
come
with
patient
volumes.
But
it
turns
out
it
was
not
a
one
off.
It
took
5
plus
hours
for
my
3
year
old
to
receive
2
stitches.
Beside
that
and
the
confusing
triage/registration
system
where
you
are
to
return
to
the
waiting
area
back
and
forth
like
a
ping
pong
or
lack
of
assessment
or
care
to
my
son
to
determine
whether
he
may
need
ice
for
the
swelling,
a
new
gauze/bandaid
for
the
blood
etc,
some
of
the
nurses
truly
lack
bedside
manner,
empathy
or
care
-
I
have
noticed
this
on
a
few
of
our
visits.
Tonight,
a
nurse
in
particular
was
not
pleased
about
us
either
1)
inquiring
about
the
wait
on
one
occasion
(which
was
after
4
plus
hours
and
my
son
had
received
numbing
medication
a
hour
before
so
we
were
waiting
for
stitches
that
take
less
than
5
minutes
to
complete),
2)
simply
walking
a
few
steps
to
stretch
my
legs
after
sitting
for
hours
(where
I
was
directed
back
to
my
son's
room,
I
heard
her
complaining
about
patients
standing
around
were
staring
at
the
nursing
station
-
I
wonder
what
people
are
to
do
with
the
long
wait
times?),
to
3)
standing
beside
my
sonwhen
they
rushed
in
randomly
to
do
my
son's
stitches
-
shooing
off
my
husband
like
he
was
a
stranger
and
in
the
way
when
there
was
ample
room
and
then
to
walk
off
without
a
word
whether
we
are
ok
to
go
home
or
any
instructions
for
after
care.
As
a
nurse
with
experience
in
the
ER,
management
etc.,
I
am
very
well
aware
and
versed
in
the
challenges
and
fatigue
that
come
with
patient
volumes,
dealing
with
the
public,
long
hours,
shift
work
etc.
But
it
also
needs
to
be
recognized
that
people
coming
into
your
centre
are
also
coming
with
stress,
fatigue
and
are
people.
Long
wait
times
are
one
thing,
but
lack
of
bedside
manner,
empathy
and
being
treated
like
you
are
another
number
in
your
task
list
versus
a
person
is
absolutely
appalling.
Training
in
interpersonal
relations
may
be
helpful
or
perhaps
another
profession
all
together.
Needless
to
say,
I
will
not
be
returning.
