Was told that he "didn't think I was in very much pain", for an abscess that's kept me bedridden for a week. When I explained that this was the most painful thing I've ever experienced in my whole life, he replied "you've got a long way to go buddy". Did absolutely nothing to help me. This man should not be practicing medicine.
