My father is dying from an incurable heart problem. My elderly mother looks after him as they have been married 65 years. She was beside herself when gout had swollen his foot and had gone black underneath and creeping up ankle and swelling. In intense pain. Doctor that saw him 3 hours after waiting in ER, I felt was rude. Asked my father why he was here and that he should have waited to see his own doctor. And gave him a spray. That there was not much he could do and didn't know much about it. Then, in my opinion rambled out about some sort of medication and said go see your doctor.
Sorry, but I believe this is a disgrace.
