"Dismissive "

About: Purley War Memorial Hospital

The woman who did my x-ray for my toe was very dismissive and basically told me there was no point in me being there because 'they won't do anything about it anyway' but it's not like I asked for an x-ray the doctor told me to get one, I hate hospitals - she was chatting very loudly with another member of staff when i entered the room and I waited a good few awkward minutes to even be acknowledged, the whole experience was really degrading and as someone with severe anxiety has upset me quite a bit. You don't expect medical professionals to act like you should suck it up when you're in pain.
