I love my doctor.
Hes a GP and listens to alllll i have to say.
He goes to anxiety and depression seminars,
and is well educated.
If your not satisfied with your doctor,
you could always look into another one.
Is your doctor a GP? or a psychiatrist?
My GP is a fast paced busy man. I'm outta there in like 15 minutes. It works for me because of my schedule and I really trust him. He's pretty much mensa.
Now that being said, he knew I needed more help then he could give me so he sent me to the top people in our province. I was on a waiting list for over a year. I had many hard bumps in that year however was told I could go to the mental health teams around here. I waited it out for the psychiatrist because I was too lazy to get the help from the mental health teams. lol
Bottom line is your doctor is in a business. They make money on the amount of patients they see. Unfortunately that clouds some doctors bedside manners and sensitivity. Yes there are times that I feel rushed by my GP but I know that if I need him for longer, he'll be there for me. I've been pressured to switch doctors by my family because of another family member. They feel he failed them. Doctors are humans too and he might have failed them, but he hasn't failed me. If you're not comfortable with your doctor, see who else is taking patients ;)
Fire the doctor. Find somebody who is professional.
