Waiting times at the A&E department at Princess Royal University Hospital - Orpington are an absolute joke. According to screens there were 29 patients in A&E, the majority waiting over an hour. However, after speaking to others in the waiting area, most had been waiting over 4 hours. They had 4 patients with life threatening situations and this was showing red. No one seemed to be getting seen by a doctor.
