Or possibly having a bit more experience? Your life - you want to spend the next 20 years chasing a fruitless action through the Spanish courts, you go right ahead.  Nothing to do with being too lazy or scared - I have no complaint with Huércal-Overa hospital in particular or the Spanish health system in general.

But like I say, you want to pick that fight, go right ahead - you are not affecting my standard of living, and you certainly won’t have any effect on HO Hospital, so why should I care?

As far as I can tell...the people answering have all suffered fairly minor injuries and illness. .wait till you really need the Hospital to function properly..as I did ..you will then discover how very bad it is

as you are still alive we presume that they did something right good luck with a court case be prepared for a very long battle or just enjoy the life you have now

You must have been very unlucky when you went. I have found it superb in every way that I have been treated. Last time. I went for constant headaches and within 2 hours I had been blood tested, heart and blood pressure checked, physically examined for inner ear problems and had a cat scan. Genera...

...lly people say that they have good treatment there. I’d give it one more chance. Good luck. 

2 years ago I had a bad fall and my front teeth went through my lip and face. The bleeding was horrendous so we went to this hospital. Saw 2 junior doctors who were nasty and unkind. I speak no Spanish and they just shouted at me when I didn't understand. I was so upset. They didn't even clean the injury. Had to go back again later when it started bleeding again and were there in A&E all night. Hardly anyone could speak English and I was just left to bleed. It was a dirty and uncomfortable place with no privacy. Don’t go there.

On the contrary..the weight of evidence from so many people will make the decision a very short easy ine

Nearly 3 years ago, I was taken into HO hospital and within less than an hour I had been diagnosed with sepsis and but for their fast attention and knowledge I probably wouldn't be here today. I was in 6 days, the nurses and doctors were excellent and the food was always hot, typical Spanish food...

..., very wholesome.

Following year I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, very quickly sorted out for treatment but then had to go to Granada for the radioactive implants. Only in for one day there but once again excellent treatment, brilliant staff.

 I am now imminently due to have a hip replacement but due to backlogs have been offered an appointment at Virgen del Mar private hospital in Almeria. I would have had no qualms if I was going into HO for it, you have obviously been unlucky when you have been there.

Lucky you

A “short, easy one”? BWAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA …. Apologies … it’s just the idea that you think that not only will you get anywhere, but that you honestly believe that any court case here will be a “short, easy one”.  I may be wrong, but I would guess you know very little of the Spanish legal system? and indeed how large a part nepotism plays here *snort* “a short easy one”.  Many many thanks - that will keep me chuckling for many a day now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
