Thank You Crawfords!
The Dr. we saw Did Suggest we go to Mayo Clinic. Last Spring I went to St. Louis is St. Lukes who've recently been evaluated as "One Of The Best In The Midwest, on a level With Cleveland Clinic & Mayo. That'll Be My Next Stop. Now I Just Have t ask her for a Referral.
I think if we establish a 'good exchange' with an established or new Dr., show them Respect & the Need to Learn, we can 'ward-off' a negative attitude. I'd Like to Think the Dr. who told (my Daughter &) me to "Find A New Cardiologist", it may have been a "bad Day" that had nothing to do with us! Her Supervisors May have told her to "Thin Out Your Patients & Only Take the Critical Ones! (I wouldn't have fit That Order)
& Maybe She didn't even know that she could have been doing us a Very Big Favor! There might be a Cardiologist 'out there' far better suited to treat Me - than she & her Clinic!
In todays' world Many Dr.'s are dealing with concerns, restraints, & demands made on them by the Organization they're affiliated with. As a patient when something like this happens it's good to take a step back & try to look at "The Bigger Picture". (Who among us have Never made a "Bad Call" or a mistake?)
