To not be happy with this on my medical record ?

[Peach68]

I was seen by an OOH doctor about a few things. The report says anxiety and ‘seems to want to bring up other issues, after one is finished. Even after 40 minutes of talking’.

I think you’re projecting, this was a 40 min out of hours appt. You don’t know what for, and you don’t know what was in the notes. This was not a patient that was ignored or rushed, and you’ve no idea if the notes were, or even if the root cause is anxiety, it may well be, and the doctor feels the op used the appt to discuss multiple issues and wanted to keep talking, past this.

it’s not a crime to say something is anxiety related, factually it may well be.

as said, I think you’re projecting here rather than looking at what was presented, which is why several people are disputing what you’re writing as it doesn’t correlate at all to either what you know or what the op said.

Aren’t we all making assumptions, given none of us were in the room?

I’m choosing to believe what OP has said, you’re choosing to believe what the GP wrote. Neither of us know what really happened.

What I’m saying correlates exactly with what OP said: she doesn’t think she was there for 40 minutes and the problem she went in with had nothing to do with anxiety.

It is a well established pattern that women with anxiety are the regularly dismissed in healthcare settings. It’s not projecting to acknowledge that.

I don’t think so no. I am looking at factually what she wrote and what the gp wrote that I know of.

she didn’t say she wasn’t there for 40 mins, she said she didn’t think/feel that way then counters with it wasn’t busy, this doesn’t not mean factually she wasn’t.
she also hasn’t stayed it wasn’t anxiety, nor has she disputed she brought up multiple issues, nor did she even dispute she wanted to stay longer and keep talking.

the difference is you made assumptions past what she wrote, which is she want there 40 mins, it wasn’t anxiety, that was all that was on her notes, her notes were rushed, this is all guess work and not remotely written here.

I think if you read back through my comments you’d see that I wrote “if they haven’t included anything about the issues you went in for, I’d be pissed too.”

Emphasis on the word “if”!

GPs notes are almost always rushed, especially OOH. That wasn’t a moral judgement, it’s the nature of the job when you’re seeing patients back to back. My GP uses AI to listen in and write the notes now! I felt massively icky about it at the time but it’s probably one of the best uses of AI I’ve seen - the appointment captured accurately and saves the GP time.
