An MRi Scan in Harley Street

The doctors are trying to get to the bottom of why my heart doesn’t push as hard as it might.

So on Saturday lunchtime, I found myself in The Heart Hospital round the corner from Harley Street for an MRi scan. The hospital has an interesting history  having been refurbished at one time as a private heart hospital. Some of the expensive fittings show this.

Now it is part of UCLH and it was a very efficient procedure, as a cardiologist checked my heart with the machine.

I think the whole story shows how only the NHS can afford really expensive machines, but they must make the assets sweat.

My only complaint was the usual NHS one, of magazines that were fairly out of date. But hey who cares? I waited with a man, who had brought his wife in for something much more serious than I am suffering from. He was much better company than last year’s Hello.

It was also a simple bus ride without any changes from the stop at the end of my road.
