Does anyone else get fired from doctors because you get upset when they won’t listen? Or you have explained that the treatment option offered is one you have tried and didn’t work?

@Daphne🧸 Yes, it just like a vet clinic when an animal is to aggressive or to scared and they get mouthy we fire them. Which means they can’t come back to the clinic.
Do you mean they don’t work with you anymore due to behavior? Since they can’t fire you.
@Nica I don’t get what you’re trying to say it’s just called firing, you can get fired either because you come there too much you’re rude, etc. so yes, basically they stop working with you which they call (firing). I said what I said
@Nica It’s called firing it doesn’t mean they’re actually firing you from a job like that’s obvious. What are you not understanding ?
I have been discharged from services after reporting a rude doctor's conduct to the state medical licensing board. She delayed my appointment for an IUD insertion over 4 hours. My appointment was.to have happened prior to lunch. I waited through lunch and my blood sugars dropped. She screamed at me for not having food at the ready. My appointment was for 9 a.m. - I still hadn't been seen by 1:30 p.m. 15 years ago I was misdiagnosed as having a mood regulation disorder when I truly had underlying type 2 diabetes, Hypothyroidism, Celiac diseasez and trauma causing an eating disorder ( where my OCD shows up in perfectionistic behavior). I had weight loss surgery and developed a life threatening condition that affects my blood sugars. I was dismissed as being mental and put into psychiatric treatment. I almost died due to hypoglycemia. I had to fight to find a provider who would listen and help me on the road to recovery. 6 years later I am properly diagnosed, have gotten help for my health concerns, and am pursuing a graduate degree in medical malpractice law and Healthcare law and policy. That said- report the foul behavior of bad doctors. Post negative yelp reviews. Tell them that their credentials are MD not GOD. There is no place.for ego in the medical profession. I kept fighting and was finally heard. Don't take it personal if you're discharged from care- if your provider is a jerk- please tell the medical licensing board in your state. It's the only way they're held accountable for their behavior.
@DogMama41 This has also happened to me while I was trying to turn in a rude doctor
@Fullmoon20 There should be protections for patients against retaliation
@DogMama41 Yeah but there isn’t and it’s sad
I’m feeling anxious. I sent my doctor a message regarding my test results. I still haven’t heard back from him. I know he has an assistant that answers his emails. He told me he doesn’t like emails and he preferred that I called. However with the clinic he’s in I can’t call directly, I have to call the nurses advice line. Answer a bunch of questions and leave a message or make an appointment. That’s too cumbersome! Especially when I can just send a message through the portal like I do the other doctors. Now I believe he’ll drop me from his patients list and I’ll have to start over. Is this OCD or something else?
Today I had my follow up appointment with my psychologist, I left feeling worse, I loved the psychologist I spoke to last time he was very informed and understanding, this time I got an appointment with someone who he supervises and I feel like she didn't allow me to speak, she didn't allow me to explain my thoughts or feelings, she told me I have to take my medication or she won't be able to continue helping me, which I understand but im terrified of medication I can't get over it, she said if i start the prozac and it doesn't work then I'll have to get on antipsychotics which seems a bit extreme to me considering i have no psychotic symptoms matter of fact she didn't even allow me to explain my symptoms and i feel like there's so many other antidepressants that could work before getting on antipsychotics🙁 this didn't help me at all considering the episode of ocd i just got through was about me becoming psychotic, I just feel let down and misunderstood, I almost felt as if she was mad at me for the buspar not working she said "you didn't really try it you just took it for a week so if you stopped it it's like you gave up on yourself" but it kept me up 2 nights in a row and i couldnt function from the anxiety 😞
Every therapist I’ve tried for OCD has felt dehumanizing and judgy, as if I’m the threat not my OCD. I’m still looking for a good therapist. Have you ever had a bad therapy experience?
