I don't know which country you are in but in the UK your family Doctor would be the person to tell and his job is to make sure that you are 'followed up'.

Assuming you are in the UK, a good starting point is your Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) at the NHS Trust or Primary Care Trust (PCT) where you received your NHS treatment. You will find the relevant phone numbers in the local phone book.
If you go to the GMC they will only ask you if you have gone through the local channels first and refer you back to the local NHS Trust or PCT.
Don't be scared about complaining - your consultant may not realise just how distressed he is making you.

Don't mess about - go straight to the GMC. They will know the proper channels for complaint procedures.
