WGMG: Emergency docs! i lacerated my thumb on the joint working on my corolla i cut it down to the bone so i went to the Gawler Emergency after hours clinic, waited 3hrs bleeding like a bitch.
problems: waited 3 hours, priority first my ass dude couldn't stop sneezing went in before me, i asked my doctor if id damaged tendons he said no, he then stiched me up sent me off with out a tetanus shot, then went to local gp 10 days later was told i had tendon damage the tendon which runs from knuckle to wrist sent to RAH and had surgery.
so turns out my ED doc had missed the fact that i had cut 100% through my tendon leaving me with now bending movemnt in my thumb, and because i left it for 10 days I'm stuck with a thumb to elbow splint (size of a cast when ya break your forearm) and will need physio therapy and if the ED doc fixed it first i could have got away with being on the side lines for a month not minimum of 2 months.
