I've long stopped going to gp.
Useless data entry drones and script writers.
I had one who acted like a cop directing traffic, talk to you for ten minutes then send you to a specialist, no prescription, no follow up or anything.
I found a different one but haven’t been in years, that one wanted to start removing the few moles I had, I did one, came back as nothing then they wanted to remove the rest, pass, I went to a dermatologist and was checked out instead.
Yep. Best to go straight to specialists and the older they are the better
Haha, yeah. Old but if they’re close to retirement age some can be dicks. Past retirement age for most stuff though you can get them to do anything.
I had one that was 88yo’s, a top heart specialist and also a internal medicine doctor, I think I was his youngest patient lol. I don’t know if I’d trust my life to him with up to date treatments though. He gave me anything I wanted and knew his stuff for everyday things and I guess everything about the heart that’s who the majority of his patients were and his walls were lined with awards, current dates also.
It was a weird office, the nurse and receptionist were bitchy as hell, they only had a couple patients at a time, maybe 1 phone call while you waited at most and the nurse would sit and ride an exercise bike constantly and get pissed when she’d have get off it and take your vitals lol.
Then one day I called and it was all gone, just a message saying he had retired in two weeks time and that was the end of the best doctor I ever had.
