Thanks. I wrote the post as I was unpacking the experience under incredible distress. I am going to edit it and replace it with a simple summary.
Betrayal of trust is traumatic. No one expects it in the medical profession. I certainly didn't.
I have a new treatment team+ am getting good recovery. I had core problems identified + treatment is going well. I have yet to address the Dr in a response to be incorporated into my medical records, but I will in the near future.
What you described is the exact process a functional provider should follow. This man was not a functional provider. Not interpersonally and not fully medically. But he was board certified and looked presentable enough. I still don't have trust rebuilt right now- but I am wiser for this. I'm planning on creating policies + perhaps getting legislation for patients rights and advocacy in my state. I've taken steps in that direction.
Thanks for responding. Hope all your medical care goes well.
