"My experience with a locum doctor."

I had what I believe was the unfortunate experience of seeing a locum doctor whilst my own doctor was on holidays. This doctor - and I use the term doctor loosely - I felt bullied me, made accusations about me, accused me of doctor shopping and slandered my name. I believe I was treated like a pill popping drug addict. To say I was in shock, is an understatement. I couldn't wait to get home and lay down. The experience with this doctor brought on anxiety attacks for the following 8 days. As a retired healthcare professional myself - I have never experienced or witnessed anything so soul destroying. In my opinion there should be more thorough background checks on locum doctors.
