To Carly (Doctors & Dermatologists)

Hi Carly

Yes, I went to see Dr Rushton nearly a year ago.
I have been on Dianette, Androcur, four Florisene a day, multivits, green tea, flax eed oil, blah, silica, biotin, blah... I really look after my diet, and take regular exercise.
I occasionally call Dr Rushton to give hime an update on how my hair is looking (it looks exactly the same) and he basically keeps telling me it's all in my imagination. I told him I can PROVE I have lost a lot of hair by showing him a few old photographs.
He even suggested that my problem may well psychological, rather than physiological (another way of telling me it's all in my head.)
I told him this can't be so, as my close family and friends agree that it is thinner. He said he doesn't give a damn what they think. I don't want to ring him again, as he just gets ruder and ruder with each phone call.
He's patronising too. He keeps telling me I have I.R.I.O.T.I.S.
(I read it on the internet syndrome.)
When you go to see him, or phone him, he won't let you speak. He doesn't like you to question him. He talks over you. He's suggested I go back for a scalp biopsy, but I really don't think I can be bothered any more.
He's just after your money, and wants to flog his bloody Florisene tablets.
If this guy is the best trichologist in the country (according to him, no one else knows more about hair) then forget it. God help us!

steph is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO
