My dad's a nurse. He thinks most doctors are schmucks. Yeah, they're usually great at fixing whatever a patient needs fixing, but my dad thought a lot of the doctors he worked with before he retired were full of themselves. Mostly narcissistic personalities.
My dad saw a couple of doctors get mad at other doctors/and or nurses in full view of patients...one jerk actually hit a (male) nurse for rightly questioning an order once. (my dad has lots of interesting stories about doctors)
Once I was at a doctor for a back injury I got in a car accident, and in the middle of my appointment, sitting on the exam table talking to the doctor, his wife, who was also the office secretary, came in and interrupted the doctor...she was complaining about the other doctor in the office. In front of me. Using words that cant be repeated in polite company. She was extremely unprofessional.
I was like...what the hell? This my appointment, go away and let me talk to the doctor so that my back will stop hurting. (took about 10mins before she shut up and left) The doctor's office was in a hospital. Same hospital my dad worked in. My dad got me the name of who to complain to and we complained. Next thing we knew, that doctor's wife was no longer the office secretary.
At least that doctor was actually nice and apologized profusely for his wife interrupting my appointment. I still complained about her because my dad and a couple of his other nurse friends said she did that all the time.
