CAN A TOURIST SEE A DOCTOR FOR A LONG-TERM ILLNESS?
A crony of cave has been staying with me in London for a couple of weeks. Suddenly, his brain complaint occurred again, which creates serious headache. He told me which he has perceived diagnosis at home for a couple of years, but the complaint won’t go away.
Since this is not an puncture problem, I suspect my crony cannot go to A & E.
Do you think my crony can have an appointment at a sanatorium so which doctors can check? Of course, he is peaceful to compensate since he thinks UK doctors might give a some-more correct diagnosis.

I would take him to A&E. The problem here is you don’t seem to know exactly what the condition is and so it could be pretty severe. Any acute change in a brain condition, the severe headaches for example, should be investigated. Secondly it could be something completely new which will need to be checked out as soon as possible.
Hope I didn’t scare you too much but if he’s having severe headaches and already has an existing condition he needs to be checked over. Take him to A&E but be prepared for a possible wait in reception.
yes they will give all the information after they treat you to your doctor
I hope this helps:
