I would like to start by thanking my GP surgery the DGRI and the Bladder and Bowel department. I have met some wonderful professional who have been amazing with me. I have felt very cared for and have had very thorough investigations and treatment which I am so grateful for.
I would however like to suggest for there to be more training around self harm for the emergency department. I have had two very unpleasant experiences.
What I wanted to bring up here which I am struggling with is that there is no female GP at my surgery. This is very difficult for me and puts me in a difficult situation. I have not disclosed symptoms due to this reason. Unfortunately the GP surgery is the only one within walking distance and It is very important to me that I can do that. I am in a position where I don't know what pathway to take. There is nurse practitioner, however this is not the same and I have had symptoms dismissed so the relationship for me is difficult. Thank you if you have read this far
