You can imagine how this works? Likely he went into his next patient w/a smile on his face and a more determined 'can do' attitude.
You let him know that HE too can be worthwhile and that what and how HE does it is appreciated. So many of us take our good docs for granted at times.
Hey! You are now on his GOOD list! Count your blessings cause he's gonna go to bat for you! Don't ever doubt it.
Me? I show my appreciation, but I also let him 'get' the calls that come in for him during our visits. I know he can change channels and mite be distracted by someone in the hospital or whatever? To lay those concerns to rest, and take those outside calls?, ultimately leads to a cleaner and clearer discussion of ME! Then, ultimately, what do WE do about ME?
We're doing pretty good so far...
You tho? Sounds like you've got a 'keeper'! s!!!!!! - j
