Most places will have a system that all featured/potential fractures have their images reviewed by a consultant the following day, and a plan made based on that
Not at the Bury fracture clinic, quick review by registrar and sent off to come back in two weeks
go back, get told “what are you wearing that for, why isn’t it in cast?” by the next registrar. Consultant reviews outside the room, no assessment of the severe loss of movement. Lets leave it was the decision.
Go private, Senior NHS Consultant specialising in wrist surgery basically points out I’ve been royally screwed and that he would have operated a) the day after or b) at two weeks
spend a year and £10k on the insurance trying to fix it
permanent loss of range and massive quality of life impact
If the clinic is busy you are just a number and the quality of care random at best
