Madonna Didn't Get Preferential Treatment

Madonna has been accused of receiving special treatment in the hospital where she was treated after she has fell down from her horse.

One month ago, Madonna, 47, was rushed to Salisbury District Hospital A&E, where she was treated by National Health Service staff, who is rumored to have given her a private room.

At that time, the diva cracked three ribs and broke a collarbone and a hand in the fall at her 1,200-acre Ashcombe House estate, where she had been celebrating her birthday with her husband, Guy Ritchie and their two children, Lourdes and Rocco, according to Madonna's spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg.

A local resident, Phil Matthews, was furious when he found out the pop queen received special treatment and demanded to meet the chief executive of Salisbury NHS Trust, Frank Harsent, to set the record straight.

"I wanted to know if Madonna had preferential treatment."

Matthews declared: "I asked him (Harsent) if there were any of her minders taking up space. He denied it. My point is everyone should have the same treatment under the NHS and I was determined to see if this happened with Madonna."
