Main GP does not listen to patients

The head doctor of this surgery comes across condescending & arrogant. He clearly believes he is above/better than his patients & therefore knows it all. He does not listen! He doesn’t care to listen. Which has led to him making horrific errors & judgments within my family alone. Telling my brother he was just sleeping on his arm funny when he in fact had MS! Prescribing my sister a 3 day course of antibiotics after witnessing her in the back seat of a car as she was unable to walk into the GP surgery! & telling her to come back in a few days. She was barely able to talk & couldn't hold her head up! .. less than 1 hour later she was being rushed in to hospital in an ambulance with septicaemia & was close to death! This is to name only a few! I could sadly go on. I fully intend on changing my GP as soon as possible. There is some lovely young doctors there but the oldest longest working one lets them down. So patronising it’s infuriating!
