A Disheartening Experience with Dr. Anwar
I am writing to share a deeply disappointing experience my wife had at Island Medical Centre (where all patients of Wood Wharf Health Centre are sent), particularly with Dr. Anwar. I hope this review serves as a caution to others considering this practice for their healthcare needs.
My wife went to the surgery seeking help and reassurance, but from the outset, Dr. Anwar's attitude was anything but supportive. His demeanor was glib, flippant, and condescending, making her feel not only uncomfortable but also disrespected. As a patient, she expected empathy and understanding, but Dr. Anwar's approach was dismissive and cold.
When my wife asked Dr. Anwar to follow up on overdue test results, his response was shocking. He bluntly refused, saying, "I’m not a phone book" and "that’s a job for receptionists." This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. A doctor's primary duty is to their patients, and this includes ensuring timely follow-up on important medical information. Dr. Anwar's refusal to take responsibility was not only frustrating but also worrisome for my wife's health.
What was most disheartening was Dr. Anwar's complete lack of concern for my wife's well-being. Not once did he ask how she was feeling or show any interest in her condition. This absence of basic human decency and compassion is alarming. A patient should never feel like a burden or an inconvenience to their doctor.
The entire experience here has left us questioning the quality of care provided. The unprofessional and uncaring attitude exhibited by Dr. Anwar is a significant issue that needs to be addressed. Patients deserve to be treated with respect and empathy, and it is clear that Dr. Anwar failed to meet these basic standards.
In conclusion, my wife's visit was a distressing and unsatisfactory experience. Dr. Anwar's unprofessionalism and lack of empathy are serious concerns. I strongly urge potential patients to reconsider their options and seek medical care from a practice that prioritises patient well-being and professionalism. We will be following this up with a formal complaint.
