at no point did he suggest i could get a scan to confirm the diagnosis before sending me for more expensive treatment, or do much more than a cursory examination for what has become a very serious problem in my life, but would have been less so. ultrasound scans are £200, shockwave therapy is £400-700. if he had done his job properly and recommended a £200 ultrasound scan before a £400-700 treatment, on top of the £180 i spent with him, i could have saved myself over half a grand.
one appointment, he took a phone call for 20 minutes, and at the end after padding up my feet, insisted that because another client walked out happy the other day with "the same problem", that i would. he didnt acknowledge my discomfort when i tried to walk, i was not happy, it still hurt. he assumed it didnt hurt instead of asking me if it hurt. he just wanted to get to the next customer. it was a very personal and important phone call, so i wouldnt have minded if he had given my problem decent consideration at that or any other appointment, but he didnt.
again, i have no idea why he didnt escalate to better diagnostic tools than poking my foot a few times. to be fair, he did it very delicately, so i thought he was more professional than the people i have seen since, but clearly i was wrong.
