Someone signed off as "one of the good guys", but I can't find her post.  I
liked that as a subject line.

My "good guy" is a family physician who will see all of my clients whose own
docs won't treat for yeast infection. The FP doesn't just throw Diflucan at
them, he talks about all of the other things they need to do and discusses
stressors in their lives that could interfere with their healing.  Several
have switched to him for their family's care.  And he always sends me a
thank you for referring--even thoug it is so often another yeast case.

Another "good guy" is a Ped who is breastfeeding her second baby as we
speak.  She told one mother who had a tiny premie that the very best thing
she could do for him was to breastfeed him and this gave her courage to go
through a lot of hard times to reach the goal of very healthy, fully
breastfed baby. I know that she wouldn'd have had that courage without this
STRONG support from her baby's doc.
