Today
I
came
in
for
an
iron
infusion,
after
my
consult
with
Dr
Biswas
I
was
sent
to
reception
but
was
told
to
sit
down
again.
I
had
no
instructions
on
where
to
wait,
so
I
sat
close
to
the
Drs
office.
Dr
Biswas
saw
me
sitting
there
and
seemed
annoyed.
I
told
him
I
was
instructed
to
sit
by
reception.
He
approached
the
girl
at
reception
and
exchanged
words.
I
mentioned
that
I
wasn't
told
where
to
sit.
The
Dr
then
directed
me
to
the
"Nurses
waiting
area"
and
impatiently
asked
where
my
prescription
was.
He
had
not
given
me
one
during
my
consultation.
Once
I
had
settled
into
the
room
and
my
forms
were
signed,
the
Dr
came
in
and
asked
if
I
had
a
good
vein.
I
showed
him
my
right
forearm
and
then
Dr
Biswas
made
comments
to
the
nurse
"She's
big
"
"not
good
",
"I'm
going
in
blind".
After
the
cannula
was
inserted,
he
said
to
the
nurse
"Thank
God
I
got
it
in"
And
to
me
he
said,
Do
you
know
where
I
used
to
work?
South
Africa.
And
the
women
there
were
big
big
big
mamas
(He
used
his
hands
as
gesures
to
emphesize
his
point)
and
they
had
black
skin
and
you
can't
see
the
vein.
He
was
sharing
his
story
as
a
comparison
to
his
experience
with
me.
I
left
feeling
belittled,
embarrassed
and
upset.
I
hope
Dr
Biswas
will
read
this,
repent
and
be
more
mindful
in
future.
However,
my
previous
experience
was
exceptional
and
I
am
grateful
that
these
services
are
offered.
