Senior technician (lady) unfriendly and abrupt. Very dismissive of student who had made a mistake when applying electrodes. Pushed the student aside and said: I'll do it myself"
Had a terrible night. Regular noises in the next room; sounded like someone was working and moving papers/files around. Door to the hall was kept ajar and as a result, when hall lights were turned on/off (frequently) it disturbed my sleep. After barely sleeping, I finally used the intercom, at about 3.30 A/M, but the same technician brushed aside my complaints and tried to tell me that the noise was a one-time occurrence because patient in next room needed to use the washroom. Noise stopped and door was closed. I estimate I had a total of about 4 hours sleep.
After the electrodes were removed, I was left with a goo-y substance in my hair where electrodes had been placed. No warning of this when appointment made. What if I had been required to go to work directly from the clinic?
When leaving, I mentioned there were no paper towels in the washroom. I was told I should have brought along my own towel (Again, no warning of this).
All in all, a very unpleasant/unprofessional experience.
I expect to hear the results of the study from my family doctor , but whatever it is, it will not be a true reflection of my usual sleep pattern.
