Wow-getting into those "it's either her or me" situations can be really tough. it sounds like that's where you feel like you are at -- and even though you told your doc the woman is a problem, he's apparently not doing anything about it.

I have a similar problem with my attorney. his paralegal is truly awful, and I have often considered taking my business elsewhere. But lawyers are different than docs, IMO. IF you have a doc you love that knows his stuff and takes really good care of you, you may want to stick this one out. unless you are absolutely certain there is someone else that can take his place at the equivalent or better level of competency. In RI good docs are a rarity.

So sorry you are going through this, hang in there...like Ada said, hopefully she is just tired of things and will be gone soon anyway. Xoxox Sandy
