Despite the fact that doctors know they need to shed the "God image", the behavior continues with a significant number of them.
Like many patients, I've been treated rudely, insulted, blown off, disregarded, and criticized.
I had a traumatic bike wreck 2 summers ago when I was attacked by a pit bull. My process of healing was difficult. I went to an orthopedic surgeon who was awful to me. Upon entering the room, he immediately dropped my X-rays all over the floor. He asked me if I got back on my bike immediately after the wreck. (The dog was hovering over me and I was helpless due to my injuries). He did an exam and showed no concern for the pain he was causing me. "Why is your knee so tight?" He told me to return to work that night. (I was on crutches.)
I had to beg him for a work excuse.

Run as fast as you can from this idiot you saw recently. Warning bells went off everywhere in his office practice.

Many doctors "get it" in regard to being professional and kind. This one is clueless.

Respect your feelings and intuition.
