The Votes are in! Do you remember the question I posed to you in early December? What thing do you HATE the most about going to the doctor? There was a huge response: over 600 comments from about 2 dozen people.
Here are top three:
#3: Waiting too long to see doctor combined with a rushed face-to-face time with doctor
#2: Not being able to get in a timely manner with they need to see the doctor
The number #1 issue: Poor communication!
This includes lack of explanations about diagnoses, test, medications and what symptoms mean. phone calls not returned. A perception of not caring or not knowing you personally. Feeling rushed played into this heavily.
