Thanks. There isnŽt someone to complain to really, IŽve let my doctor know how I felt about the meeting with the nurse and I hope sheŽll see how much went wrong and that sheŽll refer me to someone else.

You can file a complaint to the health care authorities but it would take several months before such an errend is handled so it not that much of use to me.

People from the us also post here all the time about their frustrations with public clinics including being denied appropriate services and being terminated or transferred to another provider arbitrarily. It really doesn't sound very different.

SarahSweden I am so sorry that you are having such a rough time. I hope that you find a good therapy situation very soon. Is there a patient advocate/ombudsman that you can go to and explain your situation?
