... No joke now, the Dr. Goes to WebMD on the tablet types something , reads it and writes my daughter another script for a stronger antibiotic. I did get heated after that and I said some not so nice things to this Dr. but I think I was justified in doing it. Of course I waited until my daughter was in the lobby to say it ,but anybody with kids should know a parent seeing their kids in pain or sick is heartbreaking . To have a medical professional act like my kid is nothing and they won't even look me in my face when talking because it's buried in a tablet ! Come on now.
With my suspicion of doctors' motives sometimes, at that point I would have been wondering if he were seeing what his pharma girl recommended... I find it really off-putting to walk into waiting room or drs office and see them decorated with mugs, calendars, pens, and note pads with pharmaceutical company logos all over the place. I question whether they are out to help and heal people or out to get the most from kickbacks....
