This is what annoys me. First of all, the doctor who rang me to inform that my doctor is now refusing to treat me (and apparently my previous doctor in the same clinic) wasn't even the doctor I was currently seeing. Why didn't she ring me and tell me her fucking self instead of getting some other fucking doctor to do it?

And secondly, there was no alternative arrangements made. So, anyway, I've since called the clinic back because I wanted to talk to my doctor. The receptionist told me she would leave a message, but no doctor from the clinic has bothered to return my call and that was over an hour and a half ago.

So, now I'm waiting on test results and no fucking doctor will see me. I'll have to find a new doctor at a different clinic, which is pissing me off.

'Many physicians, especially those in the public sector, often have no choice of the patients they treat.

Some patients are violent and pose a threat to the physician’s safety.

Others can only be described as obnoxious because of their antisocial attitudes and behaviour.

Have such patients forsaken their right to respect and equal treatment, or are physicians expected to make extra, perhaps even heroic, efforts to establish and maintain therapeutic relationships with them?

With such patients, physicians must balance their responsibility for their own safety and well-being and that of their staff with their duty to promote the well-being of the patients.

They should attempt to find ways to honour both of these obligations.

If this is not possible, they should try to make alternative arrangements for the care of the patients.'

I tried to dig into solid laws, but it escalated to bore me shortly.
