Thread Name: BS: Why don't people trust doctors?
Subject: RE: BS: Why don't people trust doctors?
I have had nothing but exceptional medical treatment in my life. I trust the skill of my Docs because I take the responsibility to check them out. My mother the nurse did this for me whan I was very young.

The one thing I don't trust Doctors to know is rehab techniques or the lates therapies. I don't think it is reasonable to expect the Doc to know this stuff.

When I have a medical question I ask a Doctor. When I have a rehab question I ask people who may have had a similar experience and seek a direction from them. The end result of their advice is mine to accept or deny but the responsibility is mine alone. Which is as it should be.
