I have to admit that I'm a bit dismayed by the lawsuit thread and the consensus that a lawsuit or the threat of one will give you better care. I will agree that some docs are difficult to get along with and can be unpleasant especially when you don't agree with their agenda. [Please note that some patients are difficult to get along with and can be unpleasant when you don't agree with their agenda] I will also agree that some docs are not receptive to new information. [or are very selective about what they will consider a proper "source" of info] I think it would be hard to maintain a good, open, doctor/patient relationship with someone who you were threatening with a lawsuit. You will probably need to find a new doctor - if you have a choice in this day of insurance dictating who you can see. Gail Gail S.
