'Just gets old and annoying, though, when you have to go through everything one at a time every morning in hosp. with 8 or 10 "student" doctors who come through at different times. 'Began to feel like I was teaching some of the classes re. my CIDP. 'Began to think about recording my stuff and just turning the recorder on for a replay for each different one coming through.

Me too. Doctors who teach students how to be doctors have to know what they are doing. They have usually trained at the best medical centers and have impressive CVs which are posted on the hospitals websites. Picking good doctors and good hospitals are a crapshoot for anyone, but choosing a teaching hospital gives a patient the best odds of good treatment in many ways. It's no coincidence that private doctors/hospitals send patients to teaching hospitals when they screw up.

Oh,, I think it's definitely a good thing - it's just that I was pleased and somewhat surprised by the emphasis placed on pain management. And it was Tampa General. We are pretty hard core about using teaching hospitals - I don't know St. Joseph's, but I do know TGH, and it has an excellent reputation on the teaching side.

Doctors and nurses see severe pain every day so they tend to become immune to a patients complaints, and patients often suffer needlessly. IMO keeping an inpatient pain free is a good general policy. It's also good for the hospitals bottom line since the patient will be less apprehensive about future admissions at the same hospital. My guess would be that she was in St. Josephs hospital which in the past was most considerate of patients feelings.
