    Re: actually I am with BUPA

    Without the fantastic surgeons, doctors & nurses and their help, care, commitment, kindness and dedication, we would have buried our daughter many years ago. They have our eternal gratitude, admiration, thanks and respect for giving Laura the opportunity to live her life. We can never repay them for their devotion to her care and well being. The NHS is one of the greatest organisations this country has ever created, in my opinion.

    And the NHS ****** up the last operation I had, misdiagnosed my Grandad's illness and left my Grandma without food and water.

    The big city university hospitals are generally good, the smaller ones, well you have to cross your fingers really.

    Re: actually I am with BUPA

    I'm sorry that your experience of the NHS has been so poor & inexcusable. I can only speak of my own experiences of the NHS, which has been superb.

    You've never heard of Mid-Staffs?

    You think that's the only place that happened?

    Old people who don't have any relatives to bring food in or nag the nurses often don't get fed or changed or given water.

    Nurses in geriatric wards tend to be the worst ones because nurses don't want to work on those wards, they want most of all to work on the children's ward, if they can't get that then anywhere but the geri ward, I've worked in the NHS.

    I had an op in the 70s and everything was great, since then I think it's gone downhill.

    Re: actually I am with BUPA

    As I said, I can only speak of my own experiences. The care my daughter received & still receives, the care my late parents received, the care me, my family and friends have received has been superb and of the highest order.

    My experience is hardly unusual, it was revealed last year that you are 24% more likely to die after an operation on a Friday than earlier in the week, because of the lack of doctors on duty on weekends, things like that are not acceptable in a first-world country IMO.

    Not that it's any of your business, but if you must know it's been Barnsley DGH, Sheffield's Children's Hospital, Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre, Hallamshire & the Northern General.

    How would privatising it solve this situation?

    BUPA should be banned. As should all private medicine. Lazy fecking doctors and consultants knocking off early to treat private patients make my piss boil

    Re: actually I am with BUPA

    Sorry I don't believe a word you say on any subject. I think you would even lie about anything like this. My daughter was born with an illness her care has been beyond exemplary. My dad had a triple heart by pass again exemplary

    It's just another example of how you hate your country lying about something that most of us are proud of.

    Sad really.

    Just because you've only had good experiences doesn't mean everyone else has
