Large university hospital

I took my 5-year-old daughter to the university hospital to see a doctor yesterday.

She has a little bump on her right hip, so she needs to see a doctor twice a year.

The university hospital is very large, so it is always crowded.

The parking area is too large, so we always have to walk to the entrance of the hospital for about 5 minutes.

We have to wait for our turn even though we already made a reservation.

We had a reservation at 12:30 yesterday, but we were able to see the doctor at 1:00.

But it was still better than before.

We sometimes had to wait more than an hour.

They don't consider how patients can wait for a long time without getting bored.

For example, another clinic prepares magagines or TV in a waiting room, so that we can wait for a while.

I always bring a notebook and pens so that my daughter can wait for a long time drawing pictures.

Doctor's consulting finished in only 3 minutes and we had to wait to make a reservation of next examination for more than 30 minutes.

It made me really tired.

Visiting the hospital makes me depressed.

Isn't it ironic?

  1. Hello Kumi-san,

    Hospitals are never fun places to have to go. I try to avoid them if at all possible, but sometimes it is not an option. Having to visit hospitals with a small child makes thing yet more stressful. When I had to go as a child I would always get a box of smarties and maltesers.

    Hopefully you will not have to visit the hospital again soon.

    Here is a list of some of the issues found with the post:

    1. Thank you Terry.
      I have to take my daughter to the hospital again in June.
      Maybe I will write about it ( maybe a complaint)!
