...I didnt know whether to laugh or cry at that comment, bustrbrwn22: maybe I am jaded but aren't celebrities/the wealthy treated differently in many respects? "Poor....or....Stupid" Hmmm, poor and stupid? Many "poor" people are far from stupid and many stupid people are not poor.... don't mind me, it's been a long day! When we have an illness, pain, disease... doesn't that level the playing field in any case? But might it be interesting to know what our doctors think about us (or not)!
Not having the education etc. to be a doctor, I still would not really want to be one... but it is "their" chosen profession and surely they realized they would have a variety of patients - of all ages, education, personality, health issues? Some drs. are open to questions/discussion about what they are prescribing and why - others, as we know, and as my former GP told me: "It's my office and my rules" (although his income was from the Government of Ontario)!
