I was touched to receive a call from a senior partner at my GP's surgery who I do not get on with at all, asking about my health.
It was genuine concern and she's called again since. Extraordinary.
She did something similar last year. I had a severe allergic reaction to a mystery trigger and although I managed to stagger to the surgery (it's very close to my home) I must have looked terrible because she took me straight into her consulting room and put me on a nebuliser, whilst she called for an ambulance.
2 weeks later, she called me (and at the weekend) to ask how I was feeling. I was amazed. The staff later told me that I was the last patient she saw before going on holiday so she must have called me as soon as she got back.
I have had very little to do with this doctor and that has generally been aggressive - we seem to rub each other up the wrong way but I cannot fault her for her care.
Wish there were more like her!
