I saw a doc, he/she was really rude, when I asked for anything, said was not in agreement, sighed, slammed prescription pad down and wrote it up anyway, was rough and didn't respond when I said oww and all. Also, the door was left wide open after seeing me. Ok, I was decent, but that is ridiculous. I saw others and they saw me. What happened to privacy? Then 2-3 other people were seen in other rooms while I waited about an hour for nothing. I almost left.
I feel like complaining! Should I?

File a complaint with your State Medical Board. They're in charge of licensing but also discipline members who do not have the patient's interests at heart (which your doctor apparently does not). After that, change doctors (unless s/he is a really good specialist and is the only one in your area).
Doctors, despite having MDs, often don't realize that other people's time can actually be valuable and that other people actually do deserve some respect, too. Yes, I respect people who've put in 8+ years to study their profession but they should also respect me for consulting them and paying them (a good deal of money, too). I have other things to do with my life, too, and I try not to keep people waiting on me and hope others do the same for me.

Yes absolutely, to the American Medical Association.

You know that you can report this creep to the Medical Board.

damn straight, if it isn't wire tapping, then its people looking at other people in their most uncomfortable. Do something now and I know you'll find a cheery change in your doc.
