Arrogant doctors
Hi Majose,
I haven't seen Dr. Klein, but my story is similar in the fact that my original doctor was ranked number two in the world(I'm sure this can't be checked out but he is still one of the best), had horrible bedside manners and as far as waiting, here in Canada we have a public system health care so we have no choice but to wait sometimes all day when we have appointments, and we have no choice to accept the attitude that comes along with doctors, so I know how you feel.
Since then my doctor has moved back to Europe to practice orthopedics(He's from Switzerland, and a professor), so when my rod broke he wasn't here for me to ask him why it would happen, as I was stunned and didn't know a thing about all that can happen post op. Other doctors also told me that broken hardware can't cause harm, and that I should stay with it, but the pain was bad and all was getting messed up in there(screws were loosening, etc). Bone scans didn't show my non unions, and the doctor swore that was right, until I met my new doctor that performed surgery and replaced and fixed it.
Even this new doctor has a bit of a superior attitude, but I know now to trust only me and that they're not Gods.
Take it easy, and I know how you must feel.
