I've just stumbled onto your blog & spent ...Hello.. I've just stumbled onto your blog & spent the last.. well.. couple of hours, I guess, reading up on you. <BR/><BR/>This post made me laugh because I had the same reaction the first time my fertility doctor called me. <BR/><BR/>It was an odd situation because I'd spent a week trying to get some (very simple) test results & not had much luck. I was getting very frustrated. <BR/><BR/>Next thing I knew, the doctor HERSELF called me to apologize. <BR/><BR/>Now, I'd not really blamed the doctor, but the office. Instead, she told me that she had gotten the messages but had neglected them. She then promised it would never happen again. <BR/><BR/>I was surprised that it was her on the phone, but thought that was a special circumstance because the week had gone so badly. <BR/><BR/>To my surprise, the next week when I was expecting more test results, I left a message for the nurse, and the nurse called me back and gave me the answers. <BR/>I was fine. <BR/><BR/>An hour later, the phone rang again & it was the doctor- AGAIN. She understood I'd called for my test results. "Yes." I said, " but your nurse has already called with those." <BR/><BR/>She said she understood that but wanted to know if I had any questions. <BR/><BR/><BR/>I think I sat in silence for a full minute. <BR/><BR/>It's funny... when you really think about it, why SHOULDN'T the doctor call you with your questions? But it just doesn't happen. And when it does, wow.. <BR/><BR/>This same doctor gave a friend of mine her personal cell phone # because she was going to be between offices for a month. <BR/><BR/>My friend called and said "You're not going to BELIEVE this!" <BR/><BR/>That's just how she is. <BR/><BR/>Hang on to that one. A doctor who actually cares.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150585209390355119noreply@blogger.com
