I hate my pediatrician!! Long vent
So you know, I used to work for them and they know me personally.. which makes me even more annoyed.
So I have posted before about Erin's diaper rash, and for those that haven't read it, she has had this rash for almost 3 months.
Also, my practice has 2 dr's- Dr M (who I don't like, esp. after everything) and Dr S (who is a sweetheart). Dr M is the type of Dr who is very quick with her examination of the child and is better if you are going in for a simple well check, and ask no questions. It literally takes her 2 minutes and she is done. Dr S takes her time, talks with you, and will make sure you understand everything and is very very thorough. They alternate weeks and sometimes one is in for 2 weeks at a time. So if your DC is sick, you have no choice but to see whatever Dr is there.
So I call initially for her rash, and Dr M calls in Vusion (for a fungal infection) without even seeing her. It doesn't work. I go back and happen to see Dr S who suggests to change her formula. I do that and it doesn't work. I call back again, after a while of trying EVERY known diaper cream and treatment, and explaining that I have tried it all including the prescription. Dr M prescribes the SAME prescription- Vusion- and does not want to see her. I am beyond pizzed. She can't take the time to examine her and SEE if it is a fungal infection after all? She just prescribes something without seeing her?? AND if I would have went there, she would rush me out the door and make me feel like a idiot, which she has done before.
You would think since I know her personally, she would take a little more time with me, but no. Now I know why other patients would leave when I worked there. She has the worst bedside manner in history.
So I am switching to a different Dr, that happens to be friends with them. I know he is good and other people on here have said he is great.
I just needed to vent, I am so mad!!

I work for a peds office, and it is just so weird that they wouldn't want to see your daughter!!! I don't blame you for being upset
