Re: regarding Dr. Feng and more

[Guest guest]

I know what it feels like to feel like your doctor is under attack. Esp when you are the one that was her patient. Felt like that for a long time with me with my PS . Believe me. Its ironic how life works, now the table is turned. I had to sit back to let it go after talking to PAtty, so did alot of other girls. Its just not good for the site. Period. Perhaps, this will teach a lesson.

However, in this instance-I didnt think Dr Feng was ever under attack, it was merely the reality of how her billing works. Thats all. Like it or not. not everyone will think she is the best, or does the best, or bills properly. Some will think she is the best ever. So be it.Whatever works for each of indivual is what is right.If that outcome is good, who cares? To me, All of our recommended ps's are wonderful.

Hi :

What you're saying does make sense. If we recommend who we feel is the best doctor--it can only help others. I just need to see docs work before I give the green light on my end. I have not yet seen Dr. Kolb's work so it's not my place to say, but it certainly is your place to recommend her as a happy patient/consumer. I'm glad things turned out well for you.We do need good PS's out their for us.

I really was not attacking Feng personally, I know she's a skilled PS.Perhaps my delivery could have been better.

Take care.
