My issue start in February 2023 after I went to see my doctor on an issue of getting tired when walking short distance. He checked me out and send me to specialist that again send me to this hospital for further check ups. We started of in 2023, shortly after this with a supposed CT scan, that was rebooked 3 times, which is now my fault I must ad for not picking but was sitting in the que every time from 0630 the morning till between 1100 and 1200 for getting my file, every time hearing at Room 51, "you are late sir". I must mention of course that the pulmonologist and his team, Prof Allwood, did do a VQ scan prior to this struggle of CT scans and that this team is doing some good work with hands tide behind there backs with hospital admin and government issues. Getting back to the issue after 3rd CT cancellation, again seeing specialist with all the frustrations, I was told in July 2024, that my next CT scan can only be done in early 2025. I decided to get some money together, paid of the others that was left and get a CT scan from Netcare, Chris Barnard hospital and was done in 15min after arriving for appointment...must say you are *****ed if you don't have medical aid...and took this back to the hospital on CD form and thought that I can be helped at least with some meds, but was told make ready for a type of sonar to the chest to look for more clues. After this was done, again thinking some meds now at least, was told that it is a SEVERE issue and was send for a cather for the left and right side of the heart to see more details....and now I'm told after the 3rd going for a bed with excuses of no beds, machines broken and over locked system, that I must return a 4th time. I have heard this is one of the best hospitals in the country....don't want to experience the rest...
