Im currently waiting to have my laparoscopy, my gynae appointment didn't go well and resulted in my crying. I really dont want to see that consultant again after her telling me its all in my head. How do I go about doing this?

Hi

I had the very same problem a terrible consultant, I made a formal complaint, went back to my gp and told her the story she wrote a letter to a different consultant and im having my lap at the end of this month with him. Saw him christmas week and lap this month so not too bad waiting. Go back to your gp and ask to change, it might take a little bit longer but will be worth it for your own peace of mind and confidence in who is treating you. Hope you managed to get sorted x
