[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your doctor has poor bedside manner. That’s not a new thing. I’d find another.[/quote] This. I know that some medical schools are working to address this with their residents (e.g., Georgetown) but no idea if it is actually effective. Some younger doctors I've seen there have been much more personable and caring (caring-seeming, anyway) than the older ones though, fwiw.[/quote] This is odd because I would say Drs trained at Georgetown are the least compassionate. It is good to hear they are addressing this. Based on my experience it is best to avoid large teaching institutions. They are best saved for a specific specialist or Dr that you are needing and not focused on care. They will do a good job treating your condition if it fits their interest. The best CARE is found off the beaten path. A smaller community type setting has worked well for our family. [/quote]
