A woman feels "abandoned" by her doctor's surgery after being told to find a new practice two weeks after suffering a heart attack. Retired Gail Swinscoe, 66, of Calverton suffered from a heart attack on Monday, April 3, where she was airlifted to hospital after being found by her husband, Paul.
The 67 year old had to carry out CPR on his wife for 12 minutes before help arrived. He said: "I found my wife dead on the floor, it was sheer luck that I worked for the NHS many years ago that I knew how to do CPR properly, the air ambulance doctor said that was me saving her life."
Gail was airlifted to Queen's Medical Centre before being moved to Nottingham City Hospital for recovery. The couple were advised upon Gail's return home that she would need to make an appointment with their GP, which was Daybrook Medical Practice.
