What can I do if I disagree with my doctor?

I have recently had to get a new doctor due to my old doctor moving to another city. My new GP doesn't seem to have much compassion nor interest in listening to my health concerns. He laughs, ignores or gets angry when I disagree with some suggestions towards medicine or other external health care providers, such as specialists. I've seen him about 3 times and spoke to him on the phone a few times. He's been rather obnoxious with me and has since changed my medication and has prescribed other meds I don't want nor need. He doesn't seem to care, nor have time to pay attention to what I'm going through. The medications from my old doctors, have been reduced to a point that I'm am now very fearful of a seizure. The specialists I want to see he won't refer me to. Instead he keeps saying HES the one who will take care of all my health care needs. I disagreed to that as I wanted a referral to 2 specialists in different fields for 2 different things and he's not complied nor given me any options other than to rely on him alone. What can I do or who do I talk to about this? |

informed Consent

Is it not legal for a doctor to give informed consent to a patient in regards to their health care?
I also would like to know if any doctor has the right to deprescribe or refuse to prescribe a medication that they've been on for a long time that hasn't caused any risk or problematic side effects?
Seniors 65 in good health, being denied proper health care, and being forced off medications that have not caused any problems, should be given informed consent, should they not? |
