My worst was my GP/PCP saying all men are a little ADHD. I got an official diagnosis with ease. Now I use a doctor recommended by a friend and she's fantastic. All my docs are women now, and I only use men for mental health stuff. It's worth it hunting down the right people if you can. I'm kinda lucky with my insurance. I use a badass local pharmacy, too, and their competence is mind blowing compared to big corporate pharmacies.
What fucked me up with the nurse was that the first time I met him he just finished the infusion. Took the tape off and pretty much dropped the IV rig. It just bruised a bit, but was distressing to watch. The second time I saw him I was like "oh fuck oh shit" but he had no problems. Got it on the first attempt. Painless. He's just way too chill on the back end.
