LONG DELAYS As I write this review I am sitting in…
As I write this review I am sitting in the waiting room of the Cardiac Care Unit in the Mater Private for the last 5 hours and still there are a number of people ahead of me. I have asked at reception a couple of times 'can you tell me where I am in the queue', I am told there are 'a few ahead' of me. That was 3 o clock. It is now 5.15 and 20 minutes ago, when I asked again I was told there were 4 ahead of me. This was after the guy had difficulty finding my file. My ECG and bloods were taken at 1.30pm. Why the long delay in simply letting me know of the blood test results? I have missed a whole day's work and I am frustrated by the delays and the lack of communication from those in the reception area. It is now 6pm and still nothing has happened. I paid a minimum €295 today. Is this what is meant by private healthcare?
