Sorry about Doctor Google leading to less compassion there... nut a good outcome.
Went to the doctor today (we have a similar system to Canada in Australia) post-check on new hypertension medication (after an appendicitis scare not connected). My GP is on leave, but the same notes with a new face, … now generally they do not have time to read the aged patients notes, so the new faces they are usually receptive to the patient's corrections, especially if they re-frame. No, not haemachromotosis, …see the haematology report from 3 years ago, 'we' tested the known marrow mutations but stopped at a hip biopsy because the high ferratine levels were inconsistent and it remains a mystery. Also I have a gut parasite no one worries about, as it lacks illness in the healthy... but now I am boasting.
Also in Australia the specialist will prescribe treatment but they will often shift the ongoing conversation and visits back to the GP (as well as initial prescription informed by their report).
I am sorry to hear about your negative experience with your Cardiologist. It’s my profession for 45 years & I can’t think of Physicians in Canada handling your case the way it was done. In our one payer system Physician behaviour is different. Because you can’t see a specialist without a family doctor referral, the person you describe would be out of practice in a short time. Your wife is a Doctor & it’s good to do Google search & she can help you navigate it.

Wrong: Why experts* keep failing us--and how to know when not to trust them *Scientists, finance wizards, doctors, relationship gurus, celebrity CEOs, ... consultants, health officials and more
