Quick consultation left me feeling frustrated

I arrived for my surgical consultation today dealing with a highly personal and sensitive matter, which already had me feeling uneasy and anxious. What I found completely unacceptable was the extremely brief consultation lasting mere minutes, followed by a recommendation for a cream that the physician herself acknowledged was ineffective. If the cream fails, her alternative suggestion was simply to sit on some frozen peas. I'm bewildered by this approach - I certainly don't contribute taxes to the NHS to receive prescriptions or advice that the prescribing doctor admits are pointless, which could potentially pose additional health risks. Given the extensive education and training required to become a medical professional, I would expect a far more competent and serious approach to patient care. It seems the pinnacle of medical advice in this surgery is suggesting patients sit on a bag of frozen vegetables. Absolutely appalling!
