As I am claustrophobic my doctor requested an MRI at the European Scanning Centre. The day after I had the MRI I was contacted by them saying that the radiologist needed a few more images to do a complete report. This did not made much sense but I went anyway. It turned out that they had not read the request by my doctor properly, and had to complete the MRI. The tried to say that the request was not complete when the technician saw it but I saw the request , it was all in the same page, they couldn't miss it. Even though I had to travel for hours, they did not offer any apology, they rather seemed annoyed that I insisted on asking why they had not completed the work the day before
After a couple of weeks went by, with no news of my results, my doctor's secretary contacted them. It appears that they had sent the results to some other doctor in the hospital but were going to send them again, to the right place. They still took their time, but eventually I got the results. What they did do immediately was to contact me by email to ask payment for the excess that my insurance company didn't cover. I will make sure I am never refer to them again.
