Thanks for sharing!

I love this artice! Thanks for sharing. I've fired a lot of doctors and am so happy I did so. Some were too arrogrant to take the time to explain things to me. Some wouldn't pursue a treatment plan that was aggressive enough. Some just dropped the ball too much. As a result, I love my doctors, esp. my oncologist. I do sympathize with doctors who are usually running from 15-minute appt to 15-minute appt. There's just no way they can take care of us as well as we can take care of ourselves, making good use of their wisdom and knowledge.
