I WAS interested in your report regarding “Making full use of minor injury unit”.

I went along to MIU in Bromsgrove thinking I was doing the right thing (I live in Redditch).

However, I arrived at midday and by the time I was seen and told to go for an X-ray with a suspected fractured thumb, I had to sit for an hour waiting for X-ray to re-open as they close for lunch between 1-2pm.

Finally after being there for nearly three hours, I was given an appointment at the fracture clinic at the Alexandra Hospital the next morning (I had fractured my thumb).
