"Rheumatology Department -Orsett Hospital"

About: Basildon University Hospital / Rheumatology

Consultant was completely uninterested with any symptoms I was having. Very dismissive and was only interested in the blood test results I had taken in November, which he did not explain.

No physical examination and seemed surprised when I asked if I could have my blood pressure taken.

Was told a blood pressure was normal at 138/104.

Told to come back in a year. On a more positive note, the Health Care Assistant was very friendly and caring.
