So what is the doctor going to do about your Sleep Apnea, will they provide you with a breathing machine? Sounds like you have a not so understanding doctor there. We do not like going to the doctors as it is, without us being made to feel uncomfortable. I moved to Yorkshire 6 months ago so had to change my doctor. As you probably know, when you begin with a new Surgery you have to have a 20 min consultation and get checked out. I walked into my new doctor's Surgery and he was kind of slouching in his chair. I have arthritis in my knees and as it was winter they were particularly bad, so I was on crutches, I walked in and sat down but forgot to close the door, he saw me struggling and then asked if I would get up and close the door. Must admit I thought "Bloody hell you can see I am struggling" I sat back down and he said, "What can I do for you?" I replied "erm this is my 20 min consultation I was told to come here" He then asked, "Well what do you want me to do?" I said, " I don't know, what do you normally do on first meeting a new patient?" He then asked " What ails you? I thought "Is this bloke for real?" I said "Well bearing in mind I have a Heart Condition, riddled with Arthritis, Thyroid Problem, Fibromyalgia, Tinnitus, Vertigo, two worn discs at the bottom of my back, and one at the top of my neck what do you suggest doctor?" He wrote out a form to do annual blood checks for my heart etc, this is when I found out that my sugar level was high..but that was it. I asked "Are you not going to take my BP? or weigh me? listen to my heart even? He said no while still slouching in his chair..You can book an appointment with the nurse on your way out. He then said till I see you next time. I said "Oh don't worry I won't be seeing you again, I have never known such an arrogant doctor as you, you Sir obviously cannot be bothered with your patients.Bye (I left his door wide open lol) I went to the receptionist and said to her "Don't ever book me with him again,I will see any doctor (Six to choose from) but not him" A couple of patients in the waiting room asked me "Was that doctor Reddy?" I replied "Yes" they said oh people cannot stand him. No wonder I saw him quickly with no waiting, nobody wanted to see him. Other docs have been great there though and the nurses are lovely. The point that I am trying to make, do not let them intimidate you,tell them how they have made you feel.After all it is your health. I hope that you get the help that you need. x
