Amen.
I got tired of my doctor's money grubbing ways. I have HMO insurance, so all I pay is 40 dollars for an office visit. He keeps calling me back into his office for every little thing. I can't get him to answer a question over the phone, I can't get any referals to other doctors without going into his office (even though we had the conversation twice already), etc. He just keeps billing my insurance company - and taking 40 dollars out of my pocket - as many times as he can.
When I talk to him about not being able to lose any weight at 1,000 calories or less, zero carbs, and working out 1 hour per day - he said I should cut my calories down further! I've waisted 7 years with this idiot.
Doesn't know what to do about the weight issue.... yup, that is a mystery..... pay at the window, please...... NEXT!
