"Aggressive and not very understanding doctor."

About: Highbury Hospital

Doctor I was told I was going to see was not who I was really booked into see. Instead I had to speak to a doctor who was very aggressive towards me, which is the sort of stuff I've spent my whole childhood escaping, so I was not happy about this -to say the least - and isn't the sort of person I could ever imagine truthfully disclosing information to any time soon.

After struggling for a long time with day to day life and seeking some sort of treatment for a couple of years, having this as the final product is disheartening. Quite disgusting standards imo.

Thank you for taking time to post about your experiences. As you can imagine I was very concerned when I read about your appointment with the doctor. Im sorry you didn't get to see the doctor you expected and concerned you found the doctor you did see aggressive in manner.
