Miss Shirin Irani 2017-07-19 Person 1 5 0

Tried to dismiss my symptoms and diagnosis (confirmed by 4 other medical professionals), despite the severity of my symptoms and the great impact my condition has had on my life. Manner was also rude and abrupt. I left the appointment feeling nothing but utter despair at how I was spoken to, the clear lack of regard for my physical and mental health, and the fact that she refused to engage in any sort of discussion around treatments or ways I might be able to manage my symptoms simply telling me that there was nothing she or anyone could do to help (again, something at odds with the recommendations of the other medical professionals I have seen for my condition).The reproductive endocrinologist I was referred to afterwards verbalised his shock at the fact that she had tried to dismiss my symptoms and had questioned what he agreed was a clear-cut diagnosis. He also seemed surprised that she had been unwilling to discuss the various treatment options available to me.
