Your doctors seem rushed in general. In this appt, I felt a lack of compassion. All head and no heart. Focused on accuracy, yes? Compassionate, no. Did not seem to want to deal with the fact that I was crying. But, instead, it gets noted that I have an abnormal presentation of upset. I think it's perfectly normal to be upset when there are medical concerns and the standard operating procedures get in the way of feeling cared for, but of course it's easy to dismiss that a patient's experience has validity when you can just chalk it up to them having anxiety and depression. Going to the Dr is very hard for people and especially those with a trauma history and when patients are met with mechanical responses, it only adds to the difficulty. It's hard to tell sometimes if the problem is the dr's demeanor or them feeling they have to meet their time quota for advocate and so shift into a sense of doership without feeling.
