[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound like a PITA patient to be harping on what are essentially style points. Move on bc if this bothers you she will be lucky to be rid of you.[/quote]

I disagree. The doctor was lying in the notes. Not cool. [/quote]

It’s not “lying” to say you discussed the diet and the fact that you are nitpicking over the word “educated” which is just a box-checking thing for the doctor is ludicrous and bizarre. Plenty of doctors have high self-esteem and write things in a way you might find “self-promoting”, when creating a record of their own work which in case you are confused on the point, is what this is. That she said your cholesterol was still high but not needing mediation despite it having dropped a bit, which apparently was not your cup of tea but is still accurate, is such a silly thing to get upset over. She is not a match for you (and vice versa). But you need to understand that your medical notes are not a diary entry or a letter to you the patient. They historically were to document the physicians thought processes to themselves and each other and were the property of the hospital to which you had no such access until recently. You are basically eavesdropping on what used to be a private conversation.[/quote]
