I cut my thumb recently making salad. After a few days of management by another hospital, I went to the Sydney Eye and Hand hospital emergency room where I was helped by their wonderful staff - Theresa, Mary and Dr Elisabeth. They listened to my concerns, inspected the thumb and administered antibiotics through the IV. They gave me 2 injections for pain relief to aid cleaning the wound from the pus and inflamed flesh and skin, prescribed me antibiotics to take at home. They also arranged a follow up appointment in the hand hospital for me on the following Monday to get the wound looked at and treated accordingly. I am very grateful for the way they took care of me. My thumb is healing well, the inflammation and pain have subsided and I'm on the mends. Big thanks to the medical team!
