People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
Hi everyone
I had my retinopathy appt today and I was shocked.
The person screening said that she had phoned 1 patient today as he had missed another screening.. He had missed 7 appointments and not been bothered to even cancel them.
They screen every weekend and last Saturday7 patients did not arrive for their appointments and did not cancel them.
They are purely for diabetic retinopathy screening.
Are diabetics really not realising they need these eye checks and they can lose their sight?
Are they too **** busy to txt that they can't attend or lift a phone to call?
I'm so mad that despite the nhs being in crisis with money that the patients just don't turn up or value their eyesight..
Moan over, but still angry.
Told again that no problems with eyes, **** good for T1 30 + years...
