You will not know if a doctor is good or not until after you have been to see him. The way you will know if you have a good doctor is if he takes time to examine and listen to what you have to say. Doctors these days no matter where you are have started taken on way too many patients and this means that they must rush through their examinations so they can see the next patient. This is in no way fair to us as patients. We deserve to have a doctor that cares about us more than his money.
There are some that even schedule over three patients in the same time period. When a doctor does that it is impossible for him to give all the patients the time they need to express their problems and for him to diagnosis a problem. Personally I like doctors that have fewer patients. They seem to take time to talk to their patients and get to know them. They do not just rush through an exam.
I know that doctors are important to our world. If we didn’t have them people would die needlessly. There are some docs that make it their goal in life to save lives everyday no matter what. You still have the ones that prefer to make a buck instead of treating patients the way they should be treated. They may even think they are doing nothing wrong but we know they are.
When we see a doctor we want one that is going to take enough time to learn our medical history and know who we are. If you find one of these then stick with him. If something happens to you a doc that knows your medical background will be more likely to save your life than a doc that knows nothing about you or your medical background.
I have had several personal experiences with good ones and bad ones. I have had a doctor almost let me die because of a mistake he made. I have also had doctors find health problems I didn’t even know I had and that doctor saved me.
When you first meet a doctor you can usually tell from the first time you meet whether you are going to get good treatment from him or not. If he is rushing through your exam and not listening to you because he is concerned with getting to the next patient then find a new doc quickly. You will eventually find the right one for you.
You deserve the best possible treatment available. There is no reason to settle for someone that does not seem to care about your problems when there are plenty of them that do care. I understand that they have a very stressful job and I appreciate all that they do for everyone around the world.
I think if they just realized that the more patients they have the less attention they are able to give to each patient. Also remember that when a doctor says something you do not have to agree. If you think he is wrong then go see another doctor for another opinion. I think it best to seek another opinion if you disagree with your doctor.
When an individual is ill they should go and consult a physician. There are many different types of doctors who each focus in a specific field of medical practice such as paediatrics, or optometrist practice.
