Life / What are your experiences of care for your loved ones in hospitals here? [75]

Thank you for your response Polsyr. I totally agree with everything you have stated. Especially, that it's much faster and easier to pay the doctor at his private practice to not wait for those ridiculous waiting times.

Life / What are your experiences of care for your loved ones in hospitals here? [75]

Merged: Hospitals

Good morning all,

I have recently been drawn into the Polish health system and have had the not so pleasurable experience of dealing with Doctors, nurses and quite a bit of time in hospital. I was diagnosed with cancer and have gone through 3 rounds of Chemotherapy ( all in the Onkologii Hospital In Ursynow, Warsaw )

The experience i had was shocking, the doctors and nurses lacked empathy, especially such a sensitive illness of cancer! I'm all clear of cancer for now but I can't help myself thinking about the whole experience and treatment I recieved ( as well as all Poles ) it was disgusting! For a country that wants to be Westernised, I strongly feel they need to include some lectures in UNI on how to manage people on a humanterian level.

Enough of my vent :)

Who here has had to deal with the Polish health system? And how have your experiences been?

Thanks for Sharing.
