If they weren't, I'd just switch to a new doctor. And I have to admit, I'm one of those US people angered by our current system of health care, and have though Canada's and UK's system of universal health care was better. But waiting 5 hours for the unpleasant way you were treated? Mmm. Not so much. <br /><br />In any case, I really hope you feel better soon. :(Kristina Barnes♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/08979145078007906681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-56434766022810416352010-12-17T00:25:17.680+00:002010-12-17T00:25:17.680+00:00I'm sorry for your unpleasant experience.

My brother is a pathologist, one of those specialties that has very little, if any, patient contact. I remember he originally thought of going into pediatrics, but said he knew he wouldn't be able to put up with the parents, despite loving kids. <br /><br />I sure hope you are feeling back to normal VERY soon!!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859017153454691633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-10195299645437688652010-12-16T21:51:55.583+00:002010-12-16T21:51:55.583+00:00I hope you feel better soon!I hope you feel better soon!Golden Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721520451194318436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-86217492506757626132010-12-16T21:51:55.302+00:002010-12-16T21:51:55.302+00:00Sigh...

It is a shame when you are not well to come across a bad experience.<br /><br />I have 2 boys with asthma so know when we are getting good service or not. A very frightening admission taking 7 hrs in A&E with the youngest on oxygen back in March still makes me feel sick...and worried about our next encounter with an overworked A&E dept.<br /><br />Here's hoping you get some respite with your chest very soon.<br /><br />carolCarol https://www.blogger.com/profile/14000600761469156146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-7301459865401433362010-12-16T19:29:12.946+00:002010-12-16T19:29:12.946+00:00What a lousy thing to have to put up with.

Sad to say that (as you put it) being from the US side of things, I've seen that and worse happen to folks...sad but true. You can tell when a doctor is new over here BECAUSE they are nice and actually take the time to listen. Once they get a handle on things so to speak, they lose that bedside manner/courtesy right away (okay most not all) in persuit of more patients=more money. Will send healing thoughts your way....nebulisers aren't so bad, I had one when I was younger as my asthma was pretty bad.

Here also we are made to wait even when we have appointments. Ask a doubt or a clarification, their egos are affected. They are forgetting why they are there.
