I was there to discuss an ongoing blood clot and anemia. When the dr turned off the computer and started to leave after quickly talking about the clot, I reminded him he hadn't talked about the anemia bloodwork he'd ordered. He turned the computer back on and so began a dismissive, mocking conversation that had me in tears. I tried to leave several times. He'd apologize, then he got even more dismissive to the point I told him he was being rude and was clearly not having his best day... there's too much to describe here.
