Practice refused to continue hospital-prescribed medication
I have significant concerns about this practice's approach to medication management. When a hospital specialist initiates a medication, I believe it should be their responsibility to determine whether it remains necessary. I was started on an iron supplement by a consultant haematologist, and my blood condition improved as a result. I am disappointed that this practice has declined to continue this prescription, as I worry this may reverse my progress. I have attempted to contact the consultant's office to discuss this matter further. Additionally, I experienced a concerning situation regarding a prescription strength adjustment for an antacid medication. I was present when the original prescription was issued at a higher strength, and I have questions about how and why the dosage was subsequently reduced without clear communication. Following this adjustment, my daughter experienced illness and vomiting, which I attribute to the change in medication strength. When I expressed my frustration about these issues, I felt my concerns were not taken seriously, and I received a warning letter regarding my behaviour. I feel this practice has not demonstrated the level of care and attention I would expect.
The experience has been largely unhelpful and appeared indifferent on most occasions, with the exception of one staff member. During visits to the waiting area, reception staff have been overheard..
