Revisiting an older dilemma
Most of you felt the bedside manner won out. WELL, I had my farewell visit yesterday and my Doc was convinced I should go with experience. He felt my condition was complicated and that down the road I would need experience! He did not even waver. SO, we will see how this goes. Then again, if my choice is my life or a nice bedside chat, I think I know what the right answer is..
Sadly, the Doc leaving had both...a rare treat.
Thanks for all the imput. Froggy

I'm with your doctor......experience counts for a LOT. Actually, I would be shopping for experience first and second, one who believes in aggressive treatment. Bedside manner would be way down on my list.....right above looks. No McDreamy or McSteamy for me....I want McMeany - a doctor who gets up every morning, ready to kick some cancer butt!

'Not sure Carlene. If McDreamy had been the other choice, it would have been a tough decision! LOL0
