I felt rushed and dismissed. Talked over and not heard. I went in with 2 issues, hyperthyroidism and a rash. I was given a steroid prescription to stop the rash, but no investigation as to why I would have it. Simply dismissed as being something in the garden. My garden hasn’t changed and I haven’t been in it for at least a week. I explained this. Apparently my thyroid tested high at my last physical. When I went in today with symptoms of hyperthyroidism the doctor prescribed a lower dose, which was more or less the equivalent to taking half a pill less a week. I explained to the doctor that I already miss at least one dose every week already. She didn’t seem to take that into account because she was in such a rush to get out of there. I get it, doctors have 15 minutes to see each patient, but frankly, I think I would have been fine with a video visit or even urgent care for my rash. I would have been able to see someone sooner, rather than wait for an appointment
