"Outrageous"

About: Heron GP Practice (Merlyn Vaz Branch)

Went to the emergency walk in centre on new years day to be seen urgently. Saw a doctor and they told me the answer to my problems was to prescribe me a pill to stop my bleeding, but said that ibuprofen won't work any differently so i should just take that instead and my problems are solved.

Ever since this i have been bleeding almost constantly for 7 months, only to finally be seen properly by doctors elsewhere who told me i desperately needed prescribing me pills to stop my bleeding, which i now have.

Fuming that i have dealt with this pain and problem ruining my life for the last 7 months when your doctor should have solved my problem instantly but told me something that didn't work instead.
