"I generally have positive experiences with station house, today being an exception. Went into the surgery for a medication review only to be insulted as soon as I entered the room. The first comment I received from one of the doctors was âhave you put on weight?â To which I wasnât able to reply as I was shocked that they thought it was relevant to the nature of the appointment. At first I ignored this comment thinking nothing of it. As soon as I had sat down he began repeating this comment about how Iâm now âexcessively overweightâ and that I should âexercise moreâ. He also proceeded to get the scales out to weigh me to then make further criticism towards my weight. I know Iâm not exactly the skinniest of people and Iâm aware of my size, but I do not see myself as âdangerously overweightâ. Iâm 20 with diagnosis of depression and anxiety as well as having autism. So for these unnecessary comments to be made when theyâre irrelevant to my appointment has upset me and I refuse to see this particular doctor again in the future. There is always a nicer way of phrasing a comment about someoneâs weight or any other health issues, but to assume itâs okay to speak to someone this way and not have any damage down psychologically is ridiculous."
