my sister-in-law has had problems of a sexual nature for a long time, well i say a long time but shes only 18, shes been in a relationship with my brother for a few years and they've never had sex because shes scared to, after a lot of hassle from my brother (which i by no means approve of) she decided to go to the doctor, (i must point out that the visit to the doctor was also prompted by her having to have an internal check up and her freaking out and refusing to have it done) however, when she saw the doctor she asked if he could arrange some councelling for her he told her that there was no point in councelling as talking about it is a complete waste of time he prescribed diazapam and told her she has an anxiety disorder that runs in her family (hes the family doctor and there are 5 in total on diazapam - her dads addicted to it) as if that wasn't bad enough he then said failing that she could always let her boyfriend restrain her to just get it over with!! i was appalled when she told me this, but i'm wondering is there any point in trying to get her to complain, is it just her word against his?

EDIT: I just read to the bit about the diazepam. The last bit is absolutely scary chickens. *Definitely* complain. As high as you can get. And don't get fobbed off at any level. That doctor is dangerous.
fucking hell. that doctor needs to be struck off.
I would also do this.
I would personally complain. Surely the girl would have a say in what she wants? (as in, councelling or something else)
Your surgery will have a complaints procedure. You might be best off PMing Man of Kent to see how to do it.
In future she might find that someone at a family planning clinic is more helpful.
I have found this list of helplines from the BBC website, there are several different organisations that she could call if she so wishes, I assume that they might be able to organise some help for her as well.
Most important thing is just to be there for her; sounds like you care a lot about her and that support will be a great help when she's having problems, with doctors or otherwise. :thumb:
