I saw this Doctor fairly recently for a routine appointment. I found him condescending & not interested in anything I had to say. I ended up hiding in the surgery toilet afterwards to try & compose myself after leaving his office in tears. I was fairly anxious going in as the appointments were all running very late. His manner was very cold & he kept going off on tangents, telling me his opinion but not listening to mine. He clearly hadn’t read my notes. I gave up trying to explain & just nodded along with everything he was saying after the first 5 minutes even where I knew why what he was saying was incorrect. When something he tested disproved what he was saying he moved on. I was working up the courage to ask something with regards to my mental health but felt unable to do so. Ultimately I felt like I was spoken to as though I was a stupid child. Even several days later my mood is incredibly low. Maybe I was unfortunate & went on a busy/stressful day for him, but I won’t be going back. I don’t like the idea of being judged on non health related things again, & unfortunately it just makes me even more likely to avoid all GP’s.
