At Least One Patient A Day

One of my ophthalmology friends posted this video. I’m sure that many doctors can relate to patients like this. It reminds me of someone who told me they wish their was a health grades where the doctor can rate the patients the same way that patient rate the doctors. That’s probably not a productive approach, but it definitely shares the sentiment of many doctors who have challenging patients. Like most things in life though, it only takes a few bad apples to spoil the bunch. I’m not sure what can be done to deal with these challenging patients. Either way, this video highlights one of the challenges of being a doctor: difficult patients.
