Throughout my 3 years being a member of this practice, I have never really received a proper treatment. The treatments I got were always "rest and see if it's still the same in a month", or "I'm not really sure what to do about this. Do you have an idea of what it is?"
After my recent visit for foot pain, where I got the answer "I don't know who to refer you to. Let me know if you can think of a specialist and I'm happy to write a referral letter", I decided to switch GP. The day after I already had a new appointment, where the new GP told me I should have X Rays immediately. Turns out I have a fracture. Which I probably would have made a lot worse by "waiting a month" and "seeing how it goes then".
"Only a few good treatments"
