Re: Can you believe this To Lori

[Guest guest]

I think you have a good idea. I just don't know how legal it would be. I guess

it would just have to be worded the right way. Perhaps the direct quotes of

what the doctor said to a patient without inferences. That way, people can see

what the doctor said out of his own mouth. As long as it objective I suppose

they could not get you for defamation of character or something.

Great idea, just be careful.

what choice do we have? You probably didn't interrupt him because he couldn't

his mouth long enough. Mister Master mind.

Guys we have got to start reporting these so called medical people that went

to school for what a cough and a cold or in the case of the chiropractor crack a

back or too and not get involved in the care that you desperately need. I any

of you wnat to send me names and addresses of these physicians rhuematologists

pain management or chiropractor. That are giving all of us hard times.. I

would appreciate it . Maybe and I can come up with either compiling a

list of the ones who do not help us. And it would be in a form letter no names

mentioned. It is up to you guys?

*What an idiot. i would have fired his butt right then and there. Plus I

would not have paid for his services and reported him to the bbb. Your other

dr is an idiot also. what state are you in? Maybe we could research for a

good dr? I am so sorry you had to go through that. I would have left the

minute he started and not listened to any more. I have fired a few drs

myself for being just as stupid. *

I think that there are at least two websites that allow you to post

comments about docs -- try looking at the AMA (American Medical

Assoc), and I think that the National Fibromyalgia website does kind

of the same thing. I know that the AMA has a complaint procedure, if

chiros are not included, then there should be a national or state org

of chiros that do the same thing.
