With seeking a good doctor one must do their homework and research and research and research.

I have had my share of yo yo's over the years. Starting with the guy that did my gallbladder surgery many moons ago. But, in those days we all thought when a person had M.D. after his/her name...they were GOD!!! This is far from the truth.

W have to open up our mouths to save our life. We have to direct our own medical care and say NO when we feel the need.

This past week I have dictated to doctors, radiologists, hospitals , anesthesiolgist on my wishes, for upcoming tests and surgery. I got mouthy
and I did get my way. Many of us have been burnt in the past. No more if I can help it.

Remember every time you see a physician...you are fighting for your life. Even one small drug error can kill.

My prayers go out to those who are suffering by the hands of some physicians.
