Doncaster Urgent Treatment Centre 2022-05-10 Person 1 5 0

I’ve had to go to A&E twice now when I’ve felt I have had no other option because I am in a lot of pain and each time I’ve been put in urgent care and waited 2-3 hours and when finally seen I’ve had the same doctor who clearly does not care and just wants you in and out and I’ve left not only still being in pain but also feeling really invalidated and like I’ve just wasted my time.

I know that the NHS are very busy but the sexism needs to stop in medical care, I’ve had male friends go in with mild pain and they are treated with respect and empathy but women are not. I just want doctors who will give me time and empathy and understanding, and not dismiss my agony because I am a young woman l- same goes for other young women. (Also supplying local anaesthesia for IUDs) and acknowledging their pain in general.
