Felt talked over and dismissed during appointment

Attended an appointment today with my daughter, who has experienced ongoing discomfort. While a physical examination was carried out, the consultation felt dismissive and lacked sensitivity. Communication appeared to be one-sided, with limited opportunity for input from patients, and the overall manner came across as somewhat curt. I was present to provide support as my daughter finds these appointments stressful and worries about not being heard—a concern stemming from previous experiences where concerns were not adequately addressed, leading to a hospital referral and subsequent treatment. During the consultation, I felt similarly overlooked and talked past. The appointment concluded without a pain management plan being established, and when I requested an additional screening sample, it was provided in a manner that felt abrupt rather than helpful.
