"Ignorant Doctor"

About: Chorley & South Ribble Hospital

Recently came here regarding a physical problem. Was made to feel like my problem was psychosomatic, which certainly wasn't the case. Was repeatedly asked questions that were intrusive and irrelevant to the given situation; This left me feeling humiliated. Not only that but the Doctor dealing with me who was male wanted to physically examine me. And I refused this and insisted that a female Doctor did this. He did accommodate this, however when he went out of the room, just out side of the door he was then talking in his own language to a female Doctor. They were clearly finding something he had said amusing and obviously didn't want me to comprehend whatever they'd discussed about me. I thought this was extremely rude and unethical.
