On 15th October 2016; I saw a locum doctor. I made some comments/compliments about my usual GP (lets call her Dr A), and how she really helped me during such a painful time in my life.
Apparently, the locum doctor recorded some/all of these comments as "cause for concern".
Despite this, I saw my regular GP 2 weeks after this on the 28th of October, and she would have obviously seen the issues flagged by the locum GP and yet still saw me, and made no reference to it at all. She treated me totally the same as usual, and was not different.
I had a very bad experience with a psychiatrist who was very inappropriate with me, and I called her a malignant c***. I then burst into tears, and Dr A said:
"I am so sorry things have been so tough on you." She didn't tell me off, or criticise me, or rebuke me etc.
I did not go back to the surgery until 3 months later, 20th January. Although I made the appointment with Dr A, I instead saw Dr C who is a male GP.
he said:
"I know you were supposed to see Dr A, but I thought it best you saw a male GP in the meantime."
I confessed to him that on the 28th october I used a curse word about a psychiatrist. Dr A had not mentioned it to anyone, and had not written it down.
The ONLY reason for me seeing him was due to the comment(s) flagged by the locum GP. Which I thought was very weird, given that I saw Dr A, the "victim" 2 weeks AFTER the "incident."
I also thought it very odd that I was only to see a male GP, did they think I was going to make a pass at any/all female staff? I thought this was discriminatory on his part.
Dr C had discussed the issue with Dr A.
Dr A said:
"During any and every appointment, Tony has never done anything that gave me cause for concern, or raised a red flag."
So in essence then, the "victim" did not make the complaint....did not contribute to the complaint....and yet still I was not to see her....or any other female doctor.
I feel very badly let down, I feel like the doctors have been gossiping about me, and have discriminated against me, violating my trust in the process.
