    Took my lad to podiatrist today for a nail removel of big toe.
    The podiatrist was gentle with him (maybe too gentle) and after OVER one hour from start said the local anesthetic had not worked properly as he still had feeling in the top of his toe and she did not want to inject more but told us to rebook next week
    Apparantly this has happened with her before and the next time the patient returned everything was fine and completed like clockwork.
    I have not heard of this happening and to be honest have little confidence in her now.
    Anyone else had this happen on here?
