This Rheumatologist should be on the Naughty List:

How sad. But hopefully this patient will find his way to the Roadback and the support of all the wonderful people here.

I wondered about that, too. Do you think he’s attempting to be humorous? It’s not doing it for me I can tell you.

“or patients who annoy me in some other extraordinary fashion”

Surely he will want to take that down. It doesn’t seem that it would be ethical or even legal to charge more simply because you are annoyed! Welcome to interacting with the public. I hope he is audited by insurance.

Thanks Suzanne. Geez they’re really having a knock down drag out fight over on the Doctors Weighs In blog.

Niteowl,

Okay – THAT Fallon clip was a cute and very well illustrating clip! I have tried to explain to others – but, as always: a picture (or video) is worth a thousand words!

Thanks for the giggle on a high note!
