Dr. Do Little

Written by my friend Dong Wood

I’m not one to complain but lately I simply cannot resist. For the first time in my life I can relate to those folks who sit beside you in the waiting room and whisper to you about the ways their physicians have let them down. All of my adult years, I had felt very lucky to have had nothing but attentive and supportive medical teams, but now I can see why my eager waiting room companions over the years found themselves bursting at the seams to complain to anyone who would listen of their recent let downs. I have affectionately named my let down Dr. Do-Little. It seems a perfect fit since he never returns my calls, spends less than 10 minutes with me in his office and has an uncanny knack for making me feel like a burden. I imagine he spends his time in his logged onto http://www.tvbydirect.com/ upgrade his satellite package and ordering his staff do all the work. I have a much better relationship with his secretary than with him. Aren’t there any educational classes out there for doctors like this who desperately need to learn how to be compassionate with their patients?
