I am the PP you are responding to and I have fired doctors who think like you do, with glee.  I am not my cells under a microscope.  And I don't give a rat's ass what I look like in a bathing suit (nice jumping to conclusions about people).  But I do care about a lot of other things that I want my doctors to recognize.  I have personal habits that are vitally important to me -- running and eating a vegetarian diet -- and I want doctors who will recognize that I need to continue these things when the give me advice.  I have feelings, and if a doctor makes me afraid or sad (both have happened) I cannot communicate with that doctor and therefore I can't receive good medical care.  I could go on and on but I know that if a doctor can't recognize that I am a different person than the one sitting next to me in the waiting room, thats a shitty doctor.

And you are wrong about other "in healthcare."  I've had cancer, I have several chronic medical conditions, and I have a lot of doctors.  None of them have this ridiculous attitude.  or at least the ones who did, i fired.[/quote]

Actually, you are wrong. They all feel like the PP stated because THAT is their job. Some of them just pretend otherwise to make you feel better about yourself. If you need someone to take care of how you feel about yourself then you need a therapist. If you need someone with the technical skill and know-how to keep your body healthy then you need a medical doctor.[/quote]
