"Inexperienced GP"

About: Gardenia Practice

Had to see GP, Due to pain in ear with hearing loss. Previously had canal wall down mastoidectomy done.

The doctor didn't know how she is supposed to check. Instead of positioning otoscope in ear canal to see if there is any infection. She pressed otoscope to one side of ear canal, it was really painful experience. I had to stop her immediately from checking it any further.

I am sorry that your experienced pain during examination. I will pass on your comments to the clinician concerned and apologise for the upset this has caused.
