Terrible medical care that dismissed my serious health

Steer clear of this medical practice at all costs. They will only disregard you, invalidate your experiences, and jeopardize your well-being. For instance, I requested a gynecological referral last year based on my symptoms. They refused. I sought private care. Subsequently discovered stage three endometriosis with organs adhered together by adhesions, requiring surgical separation. Multiple references in my medical records detailing endometriosis symptoms were completely overlooked. Met with another physician last week, who dismissed my back pain and when I became visibly distressed, callously remarked he had patients "worse off with cancer" - implying my limited mobility and emotional suffering are insignificant?! I've consistently felt marginalized and ignored by this practice. It's absolutely ridiculous! Despite friends and family urging me to retry the doctors, witnessing my struggles firsthand, I maintain it's futile as they demonstrably do not care. The doctor seemingly presumed I was seeking benefits, referencing "DWP". My professional profile clearly shows a successful business and lifelong work ethic. I'm not pursuing handouts - I desperately need genuine help! He told my companion he wanted to "make me better" - yet I've been seeking resolution for debilitating back pain since 2017 and made zero progress. Being instructed to simply try harder - that exercise and work are "therapeutic" while experiencing such intense pain - is profoundly condescending, especially considering my relentless daily struggles. I've perpetually been treated as though I'm fabricating my conditions. Being systematically gaslighted and dismissed has practically driven me to desperation, to the point where I dread medical consultations so intensely that I'll require accompaniment for future appointments. These physicians seem consumed by an unwarranted superiority complex. I'm forced to independently investigate my blood work and symptoms. I'm compelled to abandon my business due to reduced mobility, and my sole remaining asset is my work motivation - making this situation utterly devastating. "Don't mistake your brief university lecture about my condition for my lifetime of experiencing it".
