Some people seized on my words in my last post: A doctor’s office is always on the brink of chaos – with an incredible amount of information coming in and going out, a large number of phone calls, insurance company headaches, and personnel situations that can throw the best system flat on its face. People [...]

I kind of figured that I would not get much disagreement with my previous post (at least from patients). It is easy for me to criticize my own profession and feel fairly safe, but turning the spotlight on patients makes is riskier. My purpose in writing these posts is to get both sides looking at [...]

I remember looking at the different countries everyone came from and the thrill I had when there were comments left on my post. The ultimate goal for any blogger, of course, is a large readership.

I suppose this will get me into hot water with the anti-vaccine crowd, but discussing the pros/cons of vaccines is a daily task for me. I spend a lot of time convincing people that vaccines are safe. So, to save myself time, I made a handout for this purpose. Let me just say that I [...]

To those who are confused, my hosting company changed servers and so this post was stuck on the old server. That is why I am reposting it. I have not gone nuts….well….I guess that is hard to say at the top of this post…. ************* Hey there gang. Hold on to your hats/hairpieces as we [...]
