[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This doctor sounds like a piece of work

Name and shame[/quote]

I think this poster has also created another post.  I wouldn't assume she's an easy patient. 
The notes are written from the dr's point of view and she's responsible for them.  You can add your own note too, OP.  But you don't get to dictate what she writes.  [/quote]

This. OP sounds like she has major league anxiety or OCD.[/quote]

You cannot correct the notes as a patient or add your own notes.

I'm the OP. It's important regarding the health/exercise/diet stuff because I have a heart condition and I have to actively manage it. Her incorrect comment makes it appear as if I'm not taking steps to manage it and ignored advice from my previous PCP. I do have anxiety and this shit drives it up.[/quote]
You need to have your anxiety treated and stop focusing on this. I mean this kindly.  These “corrections” aren’t reasonable except maybe the misdiagnosis which you haven’t said what it is.  Good luck. [/quote]

Um, NO. I already stated I have a heart condition. The notes written regarding diet/exercise are important and I stand by that. [/quote]

Are you a candidate for a heart transplant and that’s why you’re concerned? Because they are gonna go by BMI there. [/quote]

No. WTF. 
I have a normal BMI and a congenital heart condition. You guys make wild assumptions.

The notes and difficulty with this doctor are driving up my anxiety.[/quote]

The notes are not going to matter. I get that you have high anxiety possibly because if this lifelong heart condition.  But your energy is misplaced.[/quote]

Why do you think notes don't matter? I am also in the medical field myself and I read patient notes all the time. 
Other doctors will read that and assume that about me. Insurance providers can  also read that. [/quote]

I wish insurance providers did take patient notes seriously.  I have GERD and had an evaluation for Barrett's Esophagus. Dr instead wrote in my notes that I had it, also like OP wouldn't remove it.  The test explicitly said I did not, but should be evaluated in the future given the GERD. It has never occurred in years (I got on medication which pretty much prevents it since it stops stomach acid)  Multiple insurance providers (life insurance) decided I did have it since the Dr. wrote that I did - even with my note and test results to back it up.  It resulted in much higher term insurance quotes with Barrett's cited as the reason.  If it results in a higher premium, the insurance providers will always lean toward anything to gets them that, even if wrong.[/quote]
