"Wait time and limited amount of chairs so Drs can’t find you"

About: Sydney / Sydney Eye Hospital

(as the patient),

Easy check-in but it seems that’s all I got.

Been going to the hospital for 4 years now and it’s got worse.

They changed the waiting room where it seems there is 1/3 of the chairs they originally had. I found that I have to sit elsewhere in a corridor, anywhere I find a seat the nurses are good enough to look but I believe the drs don’t bother looking. If you are suppose to be Area B that is where you should be well maybe the hospital fixes the area and not decrease the chairs as it seems to me that the drs are too lazy to actually look for you.

The drs, what can I say, hopeless in my opinion. In my experience I wait hours just for the dr have 10minutes for my time, like look into a machine and they write notes and say nothing too me and say come back in 6 weeks to deal with the same thing.  Most of the 10 minutes is to get another dr too look and nothing, it seems to me that the drs won’t talk to you but they talk amongst themselves and you only know what’s happening if you listen to them, I believe your not allowed to ask questions as basically I am forced to come back in 6 weeks as your time is up.

The hospital itself I had a 12 month waiting list it’s been 14 months so I asked what’s taking so long it was 12 months they called the booking only to be told they postponed my surgery the dr said February that’s 3 months away 12 months comes to 17 months i told them what’s happening oh your eye shouldn’t be doing that I don’t think drs care much.

Looking forward to new appointment to tell them they don’t care about what’s happening and going to see other doctor even if I have to pay as at least I don’t need to waist half of my day for 10 minutes.

Get your act together Doctors, I believe patients need to know what’s happening and don’t speak amongst themselves.  Like why would a doctor come in to talk about a different patients.

I think it is such a shame to call yourselves Sydney Eye Hospital.
