Sent my late father to St John's…
This is a review about St John's Hospice in St John's Wood London.....Sent my late father to St John's Hospice (St John's Wood London) to give us two weeks financial respite as the private Wellington Hospital had been charging £2600 per day for his six week stay....He WAS OFFERED LIFESAVING SURGERY at the Wellington but we had to sort out our finances... Sadly, Dr Francis O'Hanlon and St John's had other ideas and decided it was my father's time to die....Dr Francis O'Hanlon refused to administer vital IV antibiotics, in fact everything my father needed to keep him with us...He also refused to transfer my father to an NHS Hospital if he wasn't prepared to keep him alive ....Dr Francis O'Hanlon and St John's decided to play God and put my father on end of life care, all done without his family's knowledge or consent....My father was denied vital IV antibiotics, allowed to develop septicaemia, fall into a coma over a week, during which time, denied nutrients, fluids and left on a syringe pump with a cocktail of drugs and a patch on his chest 20 to 50 times more potent than morphine..Left to fade away and die like an animal...At the end, he looked like he'd been in a Concentration Camp....The very last thing he said to me before he fell unconscious was "please help me".... Something I'll take to my grave....The official complaints procedures are next to useless as the medical profession is largely a closed shop...The GMC informed me they were unable to locate one Doctor when he'd already told my mother he'd been reported, and the Parliamentary Health Ombudsman conveniently overlooked 23 issues I had with St John's, including screenshot evidence, so I was forced to instruct a Barrister at great cost if I'm to ever get a fair hearing...I'm fighting for justice so my father can rest in peace knowing I'm fighting his corner...My father's only crime was he'd lived too long and not worth saving... Ageist medicine at its very worst...
