Hi Bel
Yes I have since changed the GP,still in the same medical centre but with more bedside manner. The initial GP also tried to make me feel like she was doing me a favour in finding me the surgeon. Really I couldn't believe it. I feel like telling someone so that no one else has to go through this.

Of course I will do that after the surgery he he.
