I know what you are saying, Deer.
But, Mile, was this a one time incident? Is your doc normally a great person who just blew it this time?

I ask because I've known and loved my doc for @ 15 years. I would never consider leaving him. But, he had a bad day one time, and was short with me. It hurt my feelings at the time, but, looking back, I see that he was only human. Doctors are falible *because* they are human. And I would have been foolish to have judged him harshly for that one time out of literally hundreds of times over the many years.

On the other hand, if the doc is always insensative, find a new one, yes. No one deserves to be disrespected.

But, an honest assessment is necessary before we make a public judgement on a professional. It's only fair. It's what we would want for ourselves, no?

Shalom!
