In my experience,most docs try to do their thing as well as they are able,but you do recall what they call the folks that graduate last in the med school class?( Doctor). Docs are very human; we aren't perfect,we do the best we can with hard problems to fix,too little sleep,much time away from our families etc etc. being a quilter helps me at work...I am known for my fine stitching on facial boo boos!

For the most part I have found my doctors to be supportive and understanding. I have hypothyroidism and have found male endocrinologists to be condescending, like I brought this on myself. They don't believe me when I talk about symptoms.
