Found the consultant in question totally unhelpful with regards to problems with leg pain. Didnt know why legs are red & swollen. Didnt know why broken blood vessels all over both legs. Was told waste of time using cream GP had prescribed.
Could not suggest anything for the pain in legs apart from having foam bath in beauty parlour and to observe friends legs of similar age. He was upset from the beginning of consultation that my GP had referred me in the first place!
Came away feeling totally disillusioned after waiting months for the appointment and no solutions.
"Attitude of consultant"
