Good health practitioners are treasures.

I never warmed to the specialist who didn't read my notes before delivering the basic 'Don't Do' list of his speciality/my condition each time I saw him. Had he read my notes he would have realised almost all of those Don't's were things I already didn't do & in some cases had never done.

I also didn't appreciate him telling my Dr that he knew I wouldn't follow his (useless in my physio's opinion) advice so I could come back & get his next suggestion (ie pay for another appointment!) So I never went back & kept following my physio's advice & life is good.

My cancer surgeon has a very good surgery/bedside manner. He laughs & jokes & I trust him. I've never thought of feeding him - tho I could probably pull a blossom off one of my flowering plants when I see him next week. Or give it to his receptionist.
