I've seen the doctor twice and suffer from extreme health anxiety and the first time I went I was crying and he brushed me off and rolled his eyes, and was getting visibly annoyed and I even kinda said mid tears " I can see you're getting annoyed" and he said yes, I told him not to tell me my pulse it gets high at the doctors but as long as you don't tell me I'm fine, well he did and I've been suffering for the last 3-4 weeks checking my pulse sometimes only once a day and sometimes 50+ times a day which isn't as bad as when the anxiety was at it's worst over 200 times a day.
But yes he kinda brushed off my concerns, looked exasperated and pissed off, it just made me feel like crap, stupid etc. Then today I had an appointment for an intimate issue and the same doctor and again whilst explaining to him he did an eye roll not this again. Inspected the area and it was fine but then asked me if I had had sex before I said no and although intimate it had nothing to do with sex and he looked a mixture of bemused and amazed. I am mid 20s but health anxiety and other circumstances just mean relationships etc aren't on my priorities and I want my first time to be in a relationship.
So yes AIBU to ask the receptionist next time I book an appointment to ask not to book me in with that doctor? there are about 5 at the surgery
