A Nigerian woman has gone on X to lament after her experience in a UK hospital.
She wrote: “Take care of yourself and try not to fall ill in this country. I almost died in an hospital and still wasn’t attended to. I had to wail like a fresh widow before a nurse attended to me.
“With what my eyes saw at a NHS hospital two days before, I’d rather take a flight to Nigeria to get treated if I fall sick again. Free healthcare my ass.”
An X user replied: “Same thing happened to me they insisted I continue taking paracetamol for ulcer pain.”
And the original poster wrote: “In the same waiting room, this African woman that is due for surgery was told to keep taking ibruprofen for her pain which went on for 2 months. And now she has developed liver failure and still no surgery slot for her. The woman was crying in pain and no recourse for her. It was terrible.”
