I’m a 67-year-old disabled senior who no longer has a doctor. I recently had a five-day hospitalization in Sechelt Hospital and Lions Gate Hospital. Care I received was excellent, no complaints and I was very thankful for their care and toleration on me, a grumpy old man.
The problem is lack of follow up care after being discharged. No longer having a doctor (after July 28) makes any follow up very difficult if not impossible. Nowhere to fill prescriptions etc. All I get is go to emergency, it’s up to you. Bleeding in the middle of the night, oh well, stuff some paper in it.
I am being a bit sarcastic and some people have been helpful to which I am very grateful, but others, not so much.
What the heck happened to this country? Lots of blame to go around, but no real solutions.
So, it’s simple, just don’t get sick.
Frustrated in Gibsons,
