Having had to attend my GP surgery for various infections and a stress related illness a few times in the last 7months, I have found 2 GPs in particular pass remarkable and judgemental. That makes me feel very uneasy and guilty for using services when I know my appointments were valid and necessary.
I feel the compassion and care has gone from the practice. Previous long standing GPs would have never treated patients they way some of the new staff do. There seems to be one GP who has the friendly caring manner in which to engage in consultations but unfortunately these GPs are back to back with appointments and you cant get an appointment with them as I believe everyone wants to see them and I would guess for all my reasons above.
My experiences of late always makes the think twice about calling the practice when I know I need advice or an appointment because I know I am being judged and will have to face some back handed comment. I should challenge that but your voice and confidence seems leave the room when you enter the consultation den.
