x ray & GP
Ten months ago had an x ray done on my hip which showed arthritis.
Six weeks ago saw GP because pain in the hip is getting unbearable.
GP says he suspects bursitis and injects hip
A week ago returned to GP because pain was bad. He says he has looked at my x ray and can't see anything wrong with the hip, so no treatment.
I asked him if he was giving me an opinion based on a 10 month old x ray and he said yes.
Told him there was nothing to discuss then and left.
Wrote letter complaining about what had happened and requested a second opinion.
Have received a letter from GP, no apology or explanation saying that I was to come to the surgery to get the referral letter that I had demanded and that perhaps it would be better if I moved to another surgery.
I am so angry I think its about time the public started removing doctors from surgeries for being useless not the doctors telling the public to move.
I will be responding to his letter, especially in view of one doctor in the practice telling me I have arthritis and another telling I don't, but don't know whether to take this up with the pct or gmc.
