A health campaigner who helped save her local A&E ward has spoken out after a "terrifying" 10-hour ordeal for treatment at the same hospital.
Councillor Sophia Coyle said her experience at Monklands Hospital, after complaining of chest pain, was so bad she would not go back if she fell ill again.
The mum-of-three also demanded the SNP -led Government get a grip on the soaring waiting times crisis. "You can’t just sit back and put blinkers on and say there’s a crisis," she told the Record.
