Terrible doctor and surgery left me in agony

I am thoroughly dissatisfied with this medical practice. Booking an appointment often requires waiting up to a week, and Dr. Cameron is particularly problematic. After a severe wrist fracture resulting in intense pain, he diagnosed me with arthritis but provided inadequate pain management. Initially, he prescribed naproxen, which proved ineffective. When I requested stronger medication, he refused and insisted on repeating the same ineffective prescription. Seeking alternative care, I consulted Dr. Faud Ahmed, who immediately prescribed co-codamol, which significantly improved my pain relief, though not completely. During a subsequent appointment with Dr. Cameron, he again denied me medication and refused to refer me to an orthopedic specialist. He wouldn't even examine my wrist, leaving me in excruciating pain. Desperate for relief, I visited A+E due to unbearable discomfort. I was unable to obtain medication for a week, causing severe sleep disruption. Dr. Cameron's dismissive attitude, suggesting I manage pain independently, struck me as highly unprofessional. I suspect he wrongly believes I have a codeine addiction, despite only taking the prescribed dosage and never requesting early refills. I've filed a complaint against Dr. Cameron and contacted my MP after he blocked my repeat prescriptions. Dr. Ahmed confirmed Cameron's authority in these decisions, forcing me to seek care at a more distant medical practice. This surgery desperately needs new management, and Dr. Cameron should absolutely not continue practicing. PATIENTS BEWARE!
