Broadcasting legend Leighton Smith is recovering from a heart attack and says he has learned his lesson after waiting several hours and attending a brunch before seeking medical help. At a local health clinic, now around midday, he was checked by a doctor, who told him he needed to get to North Shore Hospital. “So we went to North Shore Hospital via home, which was stupid I was told (later). Then not going directly to the hospital and then not going in an ambulance directly to hospital.”He said he had learned his lesson. Do not stuff about.”Smith said the cardiology staff at North Shore Hospital were fabulous.
