"Disgusted with the way I was not listened to"

About: North Shore Surgery

I have been with this surgery for most of my adult life and after today I am thinking of leaving, I am a Carer for two autistic teenagers and for me to come to the doctors for myself for a change takes a lot. I have been seeing various doctors ( two of which are no longer there ) since Jan with the same complaints . I have been passed from pillar to post until i came to see a lovely doctor in June who finally listened to me and how much pain I was in and how my life was being affected by this. I was told to go away try self help teqniues etc and read up on a condition that runs in my family and I am sure I have and come back if I wanted to be referred into a specialist. I went back today to see another doctor to discuss this and how I hav3 tried other things like advised and he totally disregarded everything the other doctor had said and said he didn’t think I had this condition and would not refer me and I should not have been told that. He gave me medication I had tried in January and it had not worked . I am now writing this review at 4 am , sick , in pain and stressed about the situation
