Last week i went to the dentist. It was my first time visiting this dentist as i normally go to another dentist in the same surgery. Before he'd even looked in my mouth i explained that i have a terrible fear and that i am sensitive to gagging. That i was very nervous and that if i indicated him to stop, then he would need to stop pretty quickly.
Anyway drill and water going, and i think i'm going to gag, so i put my hand up. But he didn't stop quick enough so i sat up (yes i know dangerous but it was panic) He went completely mental. Started shouting at me "jesus christ" threw his tools on the tray and walked out. I was crying hysterically. It took me 10 minutes to calm down and that was only because the dental nurse was a star and kept talking to me calming me down.
I have to go back to see this dentist tomorrow and i really DON'T want to go. In fact i'm feeling physically ill right now thinking about it. I want to tell him that his attitude certainly didn't help to reduce my phobia of dentists. And that i would like to take my dental records with me when i leave so that i can find another dentist. But i'm not sure how that will come across. I'm not sure how to tell him how he made me feel because i do not want to get upset and cry again.
Can anyone give me some advice? Please
