[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never cease to be amazed by the doctor hatred on this board. You’d rather entrust your health to someone who never went to medical school or trained in a residency. Just astonishing. [/quote]

Based on many patient experiences, that training obviously doesn't help them to develop patient interaction and listening skills. Most patients just want someone to listen to them and take them seriously. Doctors seem to be trained in finding the quickest solution possible to get the patient out of the office. [/quote]

Well be sure to call a paralegal next time you need a lawyer. I’ve heard they are great listeners.[/quote]

You are comparing apples to oranges.

I guess because we are not saving lives, lawyers are comfortable telling clients:  "Let's walk through our options. We recommend option A, but we can revisit option x." Lawyers hardly ever use the word " impossible " .  We appear less sure of ourselves than doctors are.

Plus, when you bill per hour, you are more comfortable taking a bit longer to walk through and make sure your client understands the possible solutions.
