I attended an appointment with a Nephrology /renal consultant who operate & are based in Dorchester hospital but hold satellite clinics in other local hospitals my outpatients clinic was held at Poole hospital .I found the consultant was having a very off day ,they were very unfriendly & had zero people skills ,they definately were not prepared to listen to my opinions .they recommended I should undergo further blood tests ,a Ecg & a 24 hours blood pressure test. I asked if it was possible to obtain my past medical history from another hospital where I had previosly been treated & where i had all of these tests done before to save time & nhs funds .their response was to say if i did not want the testing that was my decision, immediately after they snatch the blood test paperwork from my hand saying it was my choice to move back to Dorset .
