Is this ethical behavior for medical professionals?
I went to my family doctor I’ve been having back pains and he was supposed to refer me to a specialist. Prior visits he told me he would. So he sends this intern in the office and the intern asks me alot i mean alot of questions about my back. He leaves and I hear them talking outside the door about how she hurt it blah, blah and he comes in with his intern and he starts feeling of my back and he starts getting rough with it. He makes me lay down with my leg in the air and it starts spassing hurting. He stated we’ll send you to a pain specialist. I told him I didn’t have the money for that so he states well I’ll send you to a back specialist. I ask him can I have something for the pain pain medication or something. On my medical record I am going into law enforcement it states no mental medication for any reason. And he stated no narcotics are highly addictive and you have a chronic problem. I said what am I going to take for the pain. So he goes and gets samples of anti depressants. I don’t know they are anti depressants and before he gives them to me he taps kinda rubbing it my leg kinda in a sexual way. So before I leave the intern says three times I hope you get to feeling better. I am a woman and these are male doctors.
So I go home and take the unknown anti depressants for the pain. And I start having allergic reactions to them. I call the pharmacy and they state that is major depression medication and to stop taking it. I am furious with my doctor I call down at their office and tell them I thought I stated no mental medication. They spew and state we can put down you had an allergic reaction to it. I stated yes I almost fainted, etc. I am so furious with my doctor I have to go back next week. Do you think the doctor will be aggrevated at me for calling him? What would you do in my shoes? How do you think that he will act my next visit?

Hmm. That sounds like you could file a claim against him.
I personally wouldn’t though. That’s a rough situation, I’d ride through the next visit and if anything else happens switch doctors.
