How do You Deal with Dangerous Doctor, Abusive Provider? Tips?

Well,
After several calls I got my main hospital report including my diagnosis and X-ray reports and Ct scans. Reading the report I finally got an answer on my aortic aneurysm.
It’s 3cm and has a tear on it. An aneurysm has to be 5 cm before surgery is contemplated but what about a rip ? Does that qualify it for surgery.
My cardiovascular surgeon blew me off and seemed annoyed with me. Second opinion needed?

Glad you got your medical info. If you don't trust your Dr's opinion, then fell free to get a second opinion. Or you can directly ask your current Dr that question. "What about the tear? Am I at risk for a medical emergency?" Maybe he'll share his reason for not operating.
