"Uninterested Doctor"

About: West End Medical Centre

I visited the surgery last week in December prior to néw year due to an incident that made me attend a walk in centre to have an ecg test blood sugar and urine tests as I had what can only be described as a funny turn, when I went in to see the doctor he was not interested in the slightest, when I told him the staff at the walk in centre suggested a blood test he replied 'what for' he checked my pulse by my wrist telling me to go back to work, this is not the attitude I expect from a medical professional especially as I was worried all over Christmas then to be fobbed off in this manner

I am seriously considering changing doctors due to this experience, perhaps to one who can tell me in a professional manner what may be wrong

Never had a problem with the reception team, mind you I haven't been here for 3 plus years prior to this incident
