Never mind, Firstly, I didn't think he meant it that way and secondly - I think the patient's preference for a doctor has little to do with skill and a lot with personal preferences, empathy, etc. A patient has to be comfortable with the treating doctor or the relationship is pointless - mere technical expertise is not everything in medicine. If I would just know myself from my rantings on this list I wouldn't consider myself as my doctor either ;-) Horst _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
