The care provided by the Doctors and Nurses at the clinic is very high. The vast majority of them are UK-qualified. They run specialist clinics for Dermatology, Asthma, Paediatrics and Gynaecology.
...apart from the patient who had his bowel perforated which ultimately led to L.O.L. for him. Forever.

And the patient who had a DVT misdiagnosed as "gout" and was sent to Singapore where he collapsed in the terminal.

And the patient who had his skin biopsy results read to him by the admin guy on the desk who read someone else's result by mistake. Instead of hearing about his positive result, he was told of a negative result instead and he thought he was fine. The guy who answers the phone reads out your test results!! He also asks you what's wrong with you when you want an appointment.

And the patient who stopped breathing under anaesthetic and had to be resusitated.

And the patient whose broken leg was set wrongly.

And the patient whose bone re-set operation led to his nerves being damaged for months and arm useless.

And the patients (wives and CC) who have their PSs administered by SE Asian nurses instead of qualified gynos and come out bleeding.



Some of the doctors are great; but there's been a significant number of complete "horse-doctors" over the years.
