Thankfully not.
There are 3 hospitals over here that have a terrible reputation(neither of which are the one I mention)
That one you posted is getting very bad press right now over cancer patient xrays

Mentioned it before on one of your threads but exact same happened to my old man.

He was already at the hospital and had been there a few hours before they sent him home. Found out a few days later in one of the newspapers the surgeon had gone down to the south coast to operate on some lad who had jumped off a pier into shallow water pissed.

Its probably the same surgeon doing yours who did my old mans.

Just hope he doesnt go on holiday skiing again and injure him self putting the op back even further.

Default Update: small world.

Found out from my wife yesterday that it was the sister of a lady she works with who threw me off. She had apparently done her back in last week and couldn't bear the pain.

Poor dear, she should try having it 24/7 for over a year.

There can't have been that many emergencies for a period of 7 days - especially as we've been out of the 'troubles' for a considerable time
Without further information,I have to say that your post seems illogical.

I would say that someone with a badly broken leg is an emergency anyway.

I can understand how you feel about them fiddling the statistics for their own convenience.
