Really believe most doctors (regardless of type or specialty) do not give a flying flip about anyone .. just their paycheck.

If they truly cared, why would they continue doing things that only make their patients worse?

It's just the way doctors have treated us the last decade or so. The have literally nearly killed both my husband and I twice, put him in a stroke, and when they are not causing medical emergencies, they ignore us.

I am so sorry to hear this. That's awful.

Have you thought of legal action?

Could you get a referral to a better doctor from a trusted source?

I, myself, am without a family doctor as mine closed her practice, but she was very good and I'm sad I don't have her anymore. I hope we both find doctors like her: she was very knowledgeable, was an advocate for me, was comprehensive in her care, and sincerely cared about me and had grace, class and empathy.

No, unfortunately, we have zero legal recourse and the reality seems to be it's only students that are working as doctors right now. Literally it is taking me a full year to get an initial appointment with a neurologist for the seizures I keep having.

That's so awful. You need better care. I'm sad for you and hope things get better.

Is there a patient advocate group where you live?
Thanks for this!
