Dr [name removed] had a very cold, dismissive and disinterested attitude towards me. He didn't offer any guidance or advice and mainly gave me one word answers to my questions. I have been in pain now for 11 months and needed advice on medication and side effects, which I didn't get from him. He made me feel uncomfortable and as though I was wasting his precious time!! I would not recommend any patient to book an appointment with him, he needs to try and have some empathy with people experiencing chronic pain!!!
