"Amazing care"

About: Brisbane Northside Emergency

(as the patient),

First time going to Brisbane Northside Emergency as I feared I had fully ruptured my quad tendon after a previous partial tear a couple of months ago (which I have).

Was seen within 5 minutes. Nurses and attending doctor were patient with me explaining what happened, prompt attention to address my pain and explained the ultrasound images ie: good knee vs my bad. Even gave me a copy of the rupture image. Then contacted my specialist from St Vincent's Northside for consult.

Everything has been arranged eg: MRI booked prior to specialist appt for surgery planning

Yes there is a fee and we are fortunate to be able to opt for private but for immediate consult instead of waiting for hours in agony, it's worth it plus the atmosphere is awesome.
