Poor treatment of patients and reprehensible attitude

<p>I assert that the following statements serve the interest of the wider public, and I further assert that all statements are verifiably true. These statements refelct only my personal experiences.</p> <p> </p> <p>This doctor performed a surgical procedure on me without informing me of the potential long-term complications and severe side effects which may occur.  I returned after the operation and started mentioning that I was now experiencing severe side effects and complications, and from that moment onwards I have been treated like a leper.</p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor's receptionist (who is also his wife) refused to allow me to speak to him. She also threatened to "take me to court" for complaining about my treatment.</p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor phoned my father to try and get me to stop complaining. I was 25 years old at the time and this was most certainly highly inappropriate on the doctor's part.</p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor told me that he had been discussing my complications and my grievances with all the other doctors that I had been seeing privately in the previous months.</p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor neglected to return my phone calls or honour pre-arranged meetings on three seperate occassions.</p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor's wife threatened to throw me out of the practice since the it "also belongs to [her]". </p> <p> </p> <p>The doctor failed to conduct a physical examination on me on two separate occassions.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
