"dismissive, and very uncaring."

About: Richmond Medical Centre

Recently joined this surgery as moved areas so had to move.

I’m been suffering with thyroid related issues, and not been on any medication.

My symptoms have gotten worse so went to the GP.

The GP informed me I was suffering from anxiety not Thyroid related illness.

I then explained my symptoms, and private bloods I had done and scan.

GP informed me I have been

misinformed about my condition and that my TSH results were in range (when clearly they were not from the results,) as range is stated on the results.

I took someone with me as I felt so ill, they couldn’t believe the attitude of the GP.

It appears that they hate patients that research there symptoms and join support groups to help cope and learn more about the condition.

Perhaps more research on Thyroid related symptoms and reading the latest articles.
