Aka, I am sorry for the awful time your husband had when he was ill.
Certainly he had some poor quality medical help by the sound of it.

My husband is lucky to have a male GP whose special interest is men's health problems. He has blood tests etc every year, as an annual health screen, and this GP attends to all my husbands concerns diligently.

I too have a male GP who never dismisses my complaints - which can be annoyingly frequent because some nurses imagine themselves to have symptoms they always think will be fatal :)

On the other hand, I went to a female GP at the same practice, to have a 'female' examination, and she was rough and rude to me.

You will always find good and bad medical professionals, both male and female, just as you would in the wider community.
