"Attended Stroke Clinic"

Having had a stroke in June of this year, I attended the Stroke Clinic at the DGH for the first time since then on Tuesday 31/10/17 and the experience was disappointing! I did not have to wait long to be called, but when I saw the doctor I found them unhelpful, rude and dismissive. They did not want to answer any questions/concerns I had, told me the residual symptoms I still had were nothing to do with the stroke even though these same initial symptoms I had when I was diagnosed with a stroke. They had not read my medical notes, getting the date of my stroke wrong by 10 years!!! We were hoping for some reassurance from them but all we got was the feeling we were wasting their time and ours. No bedside manner whatsoever and explained the high bp reading I had as effectively 'white coat' syndrome without checking it again. I hope this is fed back to the department concerned so any training issues can addressed as my experience this week is clearly not a one off occurrence given that another similar review on this doctor is posted on the web site from 4 weeks ago.
