Written by a patient
1st January 2018


I was taken to St Mary's by ambulance and despite clear indication that I had s colon problem and all my initial tests being grossly abnormal the pre qualified overseas doctor failed to follow protocol and sent me to a ward without completing my care or checking with a Senior. She misdiagnos d me with a urinary infection when in fact I had a perforated colon. I am lucky to still be alive due to delays whivh caused Severe Sepsis and Pulmonary damage. Worse still the hospital tried to cover it up and did not tell me the extent of what happened to me until an investigation was launched. My treatment on Charles Pannet Ward at the hands of e nurse called Pil Joo Kim was the worst part of it. He treated myself and an elderly patientin an abusive manner. The other nurses did not like him and also felt bullied by him. I remain chronically ill over a year later due to the failures in my care. I note the glowing reviews which I consider in some instances are not genuine. The Care Quality Commission have stated that this hospital needs improvement and is not safe.
