As a medical professional myself, I find a lack of reading a patient's chart highly dangerous and stupid!
The assistant to the ENT came into the room and told me she was going to put Afrin up my nose, so the doctor could use a scope. I told her no, and she looked half stunned, half asleep and walked out. How brain dead do you have to be to think you should expose someone to a drug when you have zero clue if they might have a reaction to it? But most importantly, I was there for something in my MOUTH! You do not need a scope or anything messing with the nose for exam or treatment, yet she was blindly going to administer it. Incompetent and asking for a law suit!
Next, the practitioner Jessica came in and asked me why I was there. Again, READ the chart! So I told her. I knew exactly what the diagnosis was already, because it was obvious. I just needed the correct treatment. She got all cocky and said, "Oh, what makes you think it's that?"
I have ZERO patience for medical staff with a god complex. I didn't tolerate them when working, and I certainly will not now. Get over yourself and do you job. No one is here to worship you. You are here to serve with respect. read more
