..violation of pure innocence
I went to the walk in clinic because I was concerned about the pain in my jaw and what appeared to be a swollen tongue.
I was treated very cruelly in the examination by the doctor in attendance. I discussed some other things with him and he practically turned vicious on me, he gave me 3 perscriptions for apparent symptoms that he only thought was the cause.
He tried to persuade me into a humiliating procedure, and then I got upset with him and told him so.......he more or less to get it done or to get out. At this point I was traumatized because he is a health care worker and his bed side manner made me feel like I was an idiot and me made feel ashamed that I was not feeling well.
I was feeling worse after I left and had only 1 1/2 hours to get ready for a late shift. I researched the one dose drug treatment and became quite concerned that I was given that without any test results.
When he looked into my ears it felt like the thing would go right through my head he was that rough. When he checked my tongue he stuck the popsicle stick very rudely almost down my throat ...at which point I began to gag. He said something about the tongue muscle being attached to the jaw by the ear.
He told me the severe abdominal pain I was experiencing was not related to the pain in my jaw/ear..............
I adamantly declined his physical examination of me after the instrusive check up of my mouth and ears.......................as I left the office he said really loudly GOOD BYE, the undertone in his voice was frightening.
I went seeking medical attention..........and when I left I was so upset at the callous way I was treated I almost started to cry but I didn't.............
................I know myself well enough that I will retreat into myself again and not be able to "open up" to people again.............I can feel the shell hardening already...........Dam...

yeah, walk-in-clinic doctors are the scum of the medical industry... and i think it has to do with the '1-2-3-next' approach and the fact they are kinda like the security guards of policing.
anyway, take the high road and fill out a formal complaint with the college.
