I guess many of us will know doctors don't understand words like 'fatigue' and 'pain'...but in a rare moment of human empathy one time, my GP said he said he used to go clubbing in Manchester in his youth (Manchester...clubs...90's...๐๐๐ฎ, maybe that's why he's so irrational), which appears to have left him hard of hearing ('you'll need to speak up', hand cupped behind an ear)...surely a GP isn't fit to practice if they can't hear what patients are saying?? ๐คก
Likewise, my Rheumy's first language isn't English, so after each review, I have to write a letter correcting what he thinks I said...๐โโ๏ธ
'Always look on the bright side of life, d-dn, d-dn, d-dn-d-dn-d-dn...' ๐๐ค๐ป ...fade to long shot, whistling xxx
A medic who is hard of hearing needs help. Otherwise he may well not be fit to practice. The practice manager needs to know.
Thanks Lupiknits, I think my GP need help in more ways than one....if only he'd made the grade as a vet, he wouldn't have to listen to patients...! ๐๐ ๐xxx
A letter to the PM with 'I am concerned...'?
