Cherished1 - no, no not off topic!! Thank you so much for your post. I am soo keen on educating myself more about the alternatives. When I stuffed my GPs crappy (as always, no matter where I go) advice and went to a naturopath for myself regarding vitamin deficiencies it was the best decision I made! FINALLY someone I could connect with and loved their advice. The thing is I don't know much in this arena about alternative practitioners and who to see for what etc etc and who is good with babies so I really want to delve further, as like you I am just sick of GPs I see being completely hopeless - I do avoid going at all costs and I'm over it! I would love to hear any advice you have, whether you could reply on here or send me a PM I'd really appreciate it as I'd very much like to go further on that topic. Oh what relief not feeling like you have to go to a GP!
And yes they were so rude to not sign because it was 'against their beliefs'. It should be about allowing Parents to make informed decisions for their own children regardless of their personal opinions! they were so biased it's not funny and didn't bother to share anything to back up their belief, how could you accept such narrow-mindedness to take care of your families health & well-being? And to be implied at the start (before I debated my view and stats) that they werent going to take me on as a patient because my son could pose a risk to other patients! Omg hearing crap like that gets right under my skin. They should not think they can treat my baby like a diseased ridden person (when he is the healthiest baby i know) with zero facts about the unvaxxed being anymore of a risk and talk about discrimination and not to mention most of all it hurts me so much as a Mum to hear someone talk of my son that way! (there I go again... ranting away) x
