So try not to cancel all your medical appointments because of one bad Dr.

My experience with doctors have been similarly positive. Not only would I have died without the intervention of a skilled neurosurgeon (shout out to Steve Chang MD!), some very talented, caring, and compassionate MDs, PhD’s and therapists put Humpty Dumpty back together again and guided me through my rehabilitation.
I wouldn’t cancel future medical appointments because of one appointment that was a bad experience. I’ve had procedures that were uncomfortable, but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t a legitimate medical reason for it. That may have been the case with the back and forth motion you describe. Even so, one experience might cause me to change doctors, but it wouldn’t change my overall feelings toward the medical community as a whole. After all, I owe my life to them.
