Miss Diagnosis but still Billed

Don't trust this doctor!!!<br> <br> I had severe abdominal pains, so I went to my family GP.<br> He said it was either a Gastric Ulcer or Gallstones, so he sent me to have a Upper Gastro-Intestinal Endoscopy.<br> (That's were they shove a camera down into your stomach)<br> <br> This Doctor confirmed that it was not a Gastric Ulcer. <br> He stated that it was due to Constipation and that was why I was in so much pain.<br> He gave me a prescription and said that Ill be better in 3 days time.<br> (And these tablets were no cheap!!!)<br> <br> So 3 days later, and I'm admitted to Hospital to have my Gallbladder removed, because I was passing a Gallstone and not constipation. (Gallstones can cause a blockage and be life threatening).<br> <br> So now that he has sent me his Bill (specialists are not cheap and don't forget the tablets that he prescribed as well) he says that even though he was mistaken I must still pay his bill for the time he spend with me and for what he did.<br> <br> So, if your sick and you need a doctor don't use this one. He will send you off so that you can get even more sick (as I was prescribed the wrong medicine) only to end up in hospital with serious problems and a fat bill from him for his incompetence.
