Okay, we see alot of threads on bad doctor behavior. How about turning it around. Tell your "best doc" story.

Here's mine. He was in his 60's already when I started working. Quiet, kind and unassuming. The nurses gave me mostly his patients when I was on orientation because they said he wouldn't ever yell at a nurse. Didn't matter what time or day or night I called, he was always ready to deal with whatever matter was at hand. Saw a hostile patient get in his face more than once, but he never, ever raised his voice. Poor man died of a chronic illness just a few short years after he retired, guess his reward will be in heaven.

These are awesome stories, one and all. Thanks for sharing, I hope there will be more posted here. Our jobs are sure more enjoyable when you have respectful, compassionate docs to work with, and more importantly, the patients get better care because everyone is pulling together.
