mdeical mysoginy
As a female I have often felt unheard, not believed and even tangible health issues that are visible have been brushed off. This is a family-run practice with mainly male doctors and female receptionists. There is rarly a female doctor to be seen.
I have to be persistent to get a referral, and the GPs talk amongst the services where I don't get any further service. I had to pay a private doctor to treat an issue which was very visible but brushed off by the main GP.
Wes Streeting, former UK health secretary mentioned medical misogyny, and I can only underline this. My partner (male) gets much better service and faster referrals. I will be changing to a different GP after doing a lot of research first.
