Doctor Hartung
Respiratory Specialist, Crosshouse Hospital/by Kilmarnock.
I was off work due to pain in the airways when coughing or
sneezing. I reported to my GP that my condition had improved
a lot while off work as it was then not as painful to cough
or sneeze.
The company I worked for gave me data sheets of the substances
I had been contaminated with for some time so my GP could
state if it was safe for me to return to work, as, they were
not going to try and contain the substances as they stated
they were safe.
My GP at that time, a temporary woman GP, stated she thought
the substances were not safe and that I would have to see
a Respiratory Specialist at Ayr Hospital so they could make
that decision. I saw a Dr Elliot at Ayr Hospital who refused
to read the data sheets on the substances I had been contaminated
with and refused to say if it was safe for me to return to
that type of work.
Dr Elliot put me through a series of extended breath tests,
some that had to be cut short due to the pain. Dr Elliot then
produced reports stating the tests were normal and failed
to mention the inflammation in the airways.
I complained to the Ayrshire and Arran Health Board about
Dr Elliot as I had to take the decision myself to leave work
and contact a lawyer to take action against my employers for
causing my health problems.
Sally Collingwood from complaints department allowed me
to transfer to Crosshouse Hospital to see a Dr Hartung. After
a few tests at Crosshouse Hospital, I noticed Dr Hartung was
refusing to document the inflammation in my airways as well.
When I asked Dr Hartung about his failure to document the
inflammation, which by that time, I was being treated by an
asthma nurse for, Dr Hartung stated that if I underwent a
scope test, and the inflammation showed up, he would then
document it.
I underwent the scope test with Dr Hartung knowing the results
would be needed for court evidence. After the scope test had
been completed, and it was time for me to leave hospital,
nurses in charge of letting you out could not find Dr Hartung
anywhere. I remember thinking at that time that he was trying
to phone Dr Elliot before seeing me.
After Dr Hartung finally appeared, he stated something like:
there was no inflammation and my airways looked normal. This
made the nurse with Dr Hartung look pleased when she thought
the patient was getting good news. When I told Dr Hartung
I had done a breath test that morning and it was painful in
the area I told him to look, so there was inflammation there,
he admitted he had just lied to me as there was inflammation
exactly where I told him to look. The nurse then looked appalled
as she had just witnessed a doctor being found out about lying
to a patient.
A few days later, Dr Hartung sent me a copy of the test results
which stated: some inflammation on the right and left bronchi
with contact bleeding.
I visited my GP at that time to discuss the test results
and get my medical records sorted as I knew some doctors had
been questioning the treatment I was receiving from the asthma
nurse. The scope test had shown the asthma nurse, Carol Mills,
had only taken about five minutes to diagnose my condition
exactly as it was and Respiratory Specialists had spent three
years questioning her ability and failed to document my illness
correctly.
Before I could get the test results out my pocket, my GP,
Dr Stevenson, went into his computer, stated there are the
test results, they showed nothing, nothing at all. When he
turned round and saw I had a copy of the test results, he
shouted: where did you get that. Dr Stevenson then showed
me the computer that had the test result on it the same as
I had stating: inflammation with contact bleeding.

Dr Stevenson refused to state why he lied even though he
knew the test result was court evidence. He then became abusive
demanding I leave.
I then applied for my medical records so I could check to
see if those doctors had been lying about anything else. I
received my hospital records, from a Mr Bryden free of charge;
my GP records cost £50, one vital document was missing from
my GP records but was soon found.
The first thing I noticed about my Hospital records was a
document sent from Dr Hartung warning Dr Elliot and Sally
Collingwood that I knew the correct test results. This looked
underhand to me as Dr Hartung was having to report to the
Dr I had complained about and the head of complaints.
I then contacted Mr Bryden to get my image records of the
scope test so I could visit a private specialist as I had
lost faith in Ayrshire and Arran respiratory Doctors through
their deceit.
Mr Bryden then contacted me to state Dr Hartung refused
to give him the images saying: if I wanted them, I would have
to contact Dr Hartung himself.
To this day, Dr Hartung has only handed over one small image
about 30 mm square stating that is all he took or has on my
records. He refused to state what the standard procedure is
at Crosshouse Hospital for storing scope test images and what
images they store and in what format.
I complained to Sally Collingwood about the behaviour of
those three doctors only to be told she had left, excellent
timing as she seemed to be up to her neck in it as well.
A Sheena McDonald was then appointed to investigate the complaint
about the three doctors. Sheena McDonalds' report was a total
waste of tax payers funds as it never gave an answer to any
of the complaints made. This woman is paid by the tax payer
to investigate medical people and does the exact opposite
to what she is paid to do, cover up for the people being investigated.
Her report at least confirmed my complaint as none of the
doctors denied anything they had been accused of.
I then reported the matter to the GMC where a Jennifer Smith
stated the GMC passed the complaint back to the Ayrshire and
Arran Health Board who in turn refused again to give any answers
or reasons for those doctors' actions. Jennifer Smith from
the GMC then refused to let me know what is the standard practice
at Crosshouse Hospital for storing scope test images. She
has also refused to get any answer as to why those doctors
lied and are withholding court evidence. She has also, so
far, refused to say what organization investigates corruption
at the GMC.
I reported the actions of Dr Hartung to the Ayr police station
as I believe withholding court evidence is Perverting the
Course of Justice, a serious criminal offence. A Sergeant
McVee, so far, to the best of my knowledge, has failed to
act.
This document will be passed on to politicians and senior
police with the hope someone will eventually take action against
the people concerned and get answers.
In My view, ALL the people listed here are involved in Perverting
the Course of Justice.
