Health Warning – Doctors may be hazardous to your health!
When I was a kid, it was a standing joke that old folk never wanted to go into hospital for anything because they thought that once there, they were never going to come out alive. The truth at that time was that the NHS was at its zenith and you could probably not receive better treatment anywhere else in the world. The old timers fears were just out of date recollections of life in the 1920’s and 30’s when this was probably true.
What a strange world we live in…fast forward to the 21st century and the converse is true; the NHS is at its nadir and if, in some misguided recollection of times past, you imagine that you will be treated successfully, you will probably end up discharged… in a hearse!
