"Badly treated by the neurologist"

About: Royal Cornwall Hospital (Treliske) / Neurology

(as the patient),

A doctor in neurology spoke to me and treated me appallingly. They refused to acknowledge my point of view and did not even examine me properly.

The doctor was extremely offensive at times and as they could not diagnose me, they decided it must be a mental health problem causing my paralysis purely because I suffer with Bi Polar disorder.

I feel it is a disgrace bullying patients in this way.
