"Humiliated by a doctor"

About: Homerton University Hospital

I have mental health problems. I was taken to homerton hospital by the police. The doctor I saw humiliated me by giving me a placebo. If the A&E department doesn't want to treat people, they should be honest about it. There is absolutely no need to humiliate people. It's completely unacceptable.
