He does see me in the evening so maybe he is just exhausted and this is why when conversation gets slow he nods off.
he does help me address my main issues so i guess i dont have to be buddy buddy with him.
i still think its rude to roll your eyes at anyone who has been crying for the last forty minutes....perhaps he did it unconciously...he's not perfect but then again who is.
cali7925 said:Any advise on if i should switch docs? the idea makes me nervous. Is asking a doc to treat me with more respect and concern something I can really expect from the doctor patient relationship. I am very frustrated....are there any genuinely concerned docs out there.
cali7925 said:Thank you all for all your replies. I am actually a second year medical student. What are axis I and II? I do avoid conflict.
If I switch doctors, is my old doc obligated to send my files to my new doc. This could help my new doc help me with therapy faster. Also what is the difference between psychoanalytical and cognitive therapy. I do not know which is better for me. I have focused on talking about my past and how it has affected the way i think currently. I think this is the best way to go.
Thank you all so much.
