Also Lee,
My oncologist is the same way about getting info. Sometimes it is like pulling teeth and I have came in with a list of questions. I think that he is like this because some people want to know everything and other do not. So, I guess, he waits for us to bring stuff up. Your right, skill is more important than personality. Although, to have a doctor with skill and charm would be nice.
