I have attended the Oncology clinic in the past and have had very good experiences. Today, however I saw Dr. Majeed . Firstly I had great difficulty understanding what he was saying as his english was poor. I had to ask him to repeat himself on more than one occasion. He was badly prepared for the consultation as he did not seem to know that an x-ray had been requested by the team and I had to tell him the date that it was done. When he found the x-ray he also found that it had not been reported. He repeated over and over again that he would refer me to Orthopaedics and described what could then happen (possible pin in leg) even though he could not get the x-ray results. My PSA test result showed a marked increase so he left the room to discuss what new drug could be prescribed. He then wrote a prescription without asking what drugs I was taking in case they clashed. Fortunately the oncology nurse came into the room at tis time and was able to correct him, but only after some discussion. It was a most distressing consultation for both my wife and I as he gave every impression of not knowing what he was talking about. He left us upset and confused. Fortunately the oncology nurse saw us after the consultation and tried to put our minds at rest. P.S. the oncology nurse kindly phoned me the following day to tell me that the xray results showed nothing untoward and I would NOT be refers to orthopaedics. All the talk of doom and gloom were rubbish. I will not see this Dr. again.
