Re: How to find a doctor that will look out for your best interests?

Spitfire, you have every reason to be upset. I have heard of and met doctors who don't want to listen or be asked questions but I could not have a doctor like that and my experience is the top ones will listen and will let you ask questions because they are open and interested and caring. I've taken articles into my oncologist here in France (he's famous in France) and he's read them and commented - generally he knows all the doctors and about whatever it mentions and he often writes down treatments for me to look up!!! He was the first one to tell me about tyerb and TDM1. And I've met other caring and dedicated doctors so I still say, they're out there and hopefully you will find one. Perhaps right now you've been so misled and treated poorly that you are not in the right frame of mind to find one now but maybe a little later on.
Don't give up on them, there are fantastic ones out there.
I'm off on holiday but I'll check in when I'm back and hope to see you've found a good one.
hugs
sarah
