YEA for the medical consumer!

Post by JLH »

I just met a gal who told her doctor "you're fired" at her appointment and walked out of the office. He wouldn't listen and kept interrupting her. :twisted:

How I wish I had done that years ago when we lived in Columbus OH. What a jerk doctor and he was my M-I-L's doctor, too. I never went back, of course..........

woo hoo!

i did something similar to the gyno back in 1997, the effect of walking out after a heated discussion was tainted by the fact that i had to pay the receptionist!

I've got my medical files from my rheumatologist, who is supposedly godlike in my city, which say "she has agreed to consider taking methotrexate. I have informed her that she will likely incur permanent damage without immune suppressants. She has been uncooperative."

Shudder to think where I'd be now.
