I let patients go for this with a note detailing how it is important in the doctor patient relationship to have respect, and if there is a lack it is time to move on. Sort of a dear John because you never loved me anyway.
LMAO - and what was going on at the time to receive such a reaction from this patient? I'm sorry but it did make me chuckle so thanks for the smile this morning :)
Realized and duly noted. I hope your are writing this stuff down somewhere, it will make a great medical comedy thing someday. Uh, what, oh crap---nevermind.
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

"Are they, or are all of your problems supratentorial?"
Is this person related to the hospitalist you mentioned earlier reporting the abnormal neural discharges?
"So far I don't think much of you as a patient, so we're even."
So the patient feels you're qualified to work on a U-Boat.
Yes indeed, Mr. Data

Kind of the equivalent of a non-engagement letter for a lawyer. Read: I wouldn't get myself mixed up in your crazy shit for any amount of money.
Yea. I'm rude and it's your fault!
Express delivery to ER? Diagnosis: needs a colonoscopy using a telescope followed by a complete lobotomy?

well, that sounds like an Axis II diagnosis to me! refer to psychiatry ASAP, and put this fellow on your 'do not accept referrals" list.
