I am speechless also ! Amazing how rude they can be and think they can get away with it :twisted: Arrogant SOB. Tell you SIL to report this to her Doctor and tell everyone who will listen, Chances are this is not the first time he has acted this way and will continue to do so unless stopped. Unfortunately maybe he doesn't realize how he comes across.
My dad sees a cancer specialist and I went one time for the appt. My dad warned me ahead of time to be prepared, she would come in talk, ask if he had any questions and leave. Sure enough she did just that and When I tried to ask questions, she brushed me off, ok I'm not the patient but still. After we left I asked my dad , does she ever smile, have a personality ? The next visit my Dad told her what I said and you know after that her whole attitude changed towards my dad. now they laugh , joke and the appts are MUCH better. I can only imagine how hard it must be to be a cancer specialist, and I don't think the doctor realized how harsh she was coming off as.
Sometimes Maybe reminding them how they come off to patients helps . tell your SIL Good Luck !
