Dismissed by doctor, helped by management staff

I am giving a 1 star as I cannot give zero to the clinician I saw this morning. Suffering from significant lower back discomfort since Friday and this morning was so severe I couldn't get out of bed. I also experienced 2 episodes of feeling faint. I made an appointment to see a doctor. What a waste of time that was. No empathy at all. The interaction felt cold and dismissive. The clinician clearly had limited time available and all I was told was to take pain relief medication and that the condition would supposedly worsen before improving. That was it. So I left and went straight to speak with a member of the management team to complain, who was absolutely lovely. They took me to a private room, discussed my concerns and suggested I stay to be seen by a nurse, who then identified that I had elevated blood pressure. They also kindly arranged for me to see a physiotherapist this week. So glad I made the complaint. I felt brushed aside and not properly listened to. I pay my taxes and do not expect this sort of experience. I am very grateful to the management team member for their time and kind assistance today. Needless to say, I will not be requesting to see that particular clinician again.
