Saturday Vent
My Saturday Vent I'm so cross my niece's step mother has been diagnosed with breast cancer on Thursday but before she got the results from the breast surgeon, her gp had the results and called her ...
Yep, I too would be questioning the GP and his lack of bedside manner !
How dare he suggest that she "get her affairs in order" ?? !!
That is simply unprofessional and highly insensitive.
I would be asking for an appointment with this GP - if he is the family GP and had previously had a good relationship - and go with a support person only AFTER she has seen her surgeon armed with facts.
Thank goodness she has good support from people like you.
Please let her know about this site - it may also help to alleviate some of her fears and answer a few questions.
