Dismissive doctor left me feeling hopeless and unheard

This morning, Dr. Janet Aschkar hung up on me after I requested to consult another physician, as I felt I wasn't receiving adequate care from her. I detailed my persistent lower abdominal pain and long-standing discomfort in my feet, thighs, arm, and shoulder, to which her only suggestion was to rub these body parts. I simply wanted a comprehensive medical assessment, given that I've been enduring these pains for years. Additionally, I'm managing my mental health through walking, dietary changes, and other strategies. Women like myself are struggling immensely without proper support. I felt completely unheard and abandoned, especially when she abruptly terminated our call. If we can't rely on doctors, where can we turn? We're being treated poorly and facing discrimination from professionals who are supposed to care for us. I approached the consultation hoping for answers but ended up feeling ten times worse. I sincerely hope no one else experiences such treatment. I'm devastated, sitting in bed and crying, contemplating whether I should go to the emergency room or seek alternative help to improve my condition. It should never be this difficult to receive basic medical care and compassion.
