[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is problematic when doctors are not open to polite questioning and they aren't receptive when you inform them that they were in fact wrong. Sadly sometimes the only way they are forced to truly accept they are not God and were wrong is through a lawsuit. I wouldn't be surprised if [b]many lawsuits could be prevented by a doctor simply checking his/her ego at the door and admitting he/she doesn't know and needs to refer.[/b]

My cousin is dead. Her cocky internal medicine doctor and self-important GI doctor told her she had anything from IBS to gluten sensitivity to she just needed a good shrink and it was in her head. She dealt with endless rude speeches, ego meltdowns and  belittling. She got fired from doctors or had to leave doctors and was desperate to find some one who could get over their ego and judgment and listen. Then she ended up violently ill in the ER and she was diagnosed with late stage ovarian cancer. It was a pretty miserable death. I don't know her if her husband ended up deciding to sue to rudest doctor. he did let him and his superiors know the mistake and there was no response. No remorse. No gratitude for the update so they are more attuned with the next patient.
