Extract
Complaints of delays at out-patient clinics are common; a Newham patient's complaint that she had not been kept waiting long enough was correspondingly puzzling but has subsequently proved very fruitful. Her explanation that discussions with other waiting patients and the OPD nurse were often more helpful than the interview with the doctor triggered the development of a clinic designed for fuller participation of patients and staff.
