Anyone ever made a formal complaint about a doctor being inappropriate?

[Krazynights34]

Just that really. I’m very conflicted on whether to do something or not because I really doubt I’ll be believed and I don’t feel able to deal with potential tribunal hearings/witness statements.
Pretty sure the doctor would just deny it so in the absence of evidence (it’d be he said/she said) I’d just be making things worse for myself. I don’t want to give many details but it’s not my own doctor and it’s a case of inappropriate behaviour rather than malpractice or diagnoses etc.
Anyone ever had to do this? If so, what happened?

I did and absolutely nothing was done about it. I was basically brushed off. I just refuse to see her now. I know it’s not just me she’s done it to as there are complaints about her on the practice website.

Stay strong people get away with this behaviour because it's so hard to report it and feel safe

Thank you! I’m getting better at complaining about it as it goes on but it’s very tough. Such a shame that medical staff have the impulse to behave like this 😕. I’m sorry to all of you who’ve had to endure similar experiences x

I'm an HCA & a doctor I worked with who is now a GP tried to attack me in his home.
His personality change during the incident was very scary. Luckily I managed to escape from his house.
I should have reported it but didn't.

Now I know he's a GP I'm really concerned but the problem is I can't even remember the date it happened. Possibly 2010.
So I can hardly report him.

It's his word against mine & he can't see what he's done wrong - he even recently tried to add me on Facebook!! Obviously I haven't responded to his request but I don't want to block him so I can keep an eye on him.

Well done for reporting OP - it is really a hard thing to do.
