[quote=Anonymous]I want them to look for zebras sometimes. I also want them to admit when something is beyond their scope of practice. I had severe bleeding from fibroids. An OB/GYN in the practice I go to just causally told me to take Vitron C. I had the good sense to make appointments with both a hematologist and a highly regarded surgical GYN. By the time I saw the hematologist, I was so anemic he was surprised that I was able to drive myself to his office. The surgical gyn I saw was amazing. He did a procedure to understand why I was bleeding so badly. Based on that, he fully explained my options, from least invasive to most invasive. And told me how much time I’d have before I would likely need to come back. Six years later, I saw him again, and the choice I made was outside of his scope of practice. He arranged for me to meet a new doctor to be treated with a procedure he couldn’t perform. And then scheduled a follow up after that procedure by the other doctor. I adore him as much as you can adore a person you have only spent a couple hours with across a decade.[/quote]
