The situation is this: About twenty years ago, I was bullied by my GP to the extent that I became shaky and ill in his presence and also felt unable to visit the surgery. We are in a remote location - this effectively made it almost impossible for me to have access to health care. Two years later, my DP developed terminal cancer and required ongoing medical care. At this point a letter to my MP brought about 'reconciliation process'. This achieved nothing, my GP would not acknowledge that he had created a problem. My DP died traumatically at home - pulmonary embolism on the kitchen floor. It wasn't dealt with well. At the time I had three primary school children. I was both extremely stressed and traumatised and I was unable to get the help and support I needed at the surgery because of the previous bullying. I am now being treated for PTSD , I have fallen to pieces and my life is a mess. I didn't have access to the help that I needed at the time due to the actions of my GP.
My question is this: do I have any valid reasons to sue - and if I do how might I go about it?
