My Dr. Is Making Me Sick - Help!

Hi Moms,

I am tired of going to my GP who can't give me the time of day! He sees me for 1 1/2 minutes, hardly listens to me, and then writes an antibiotic. So I know there's not much more they can do, but can they? I would really like to go to someone who is into helping get better then by just writing another Rx. Am I being unreasonable? Are there doctors out there like this?

Help! ( and thanks!)
M.

What can I do next?

My husband and I both see Dr. Christine Becker. Her office is near Dallas Presby and I'm very happy with her.

I have never met a doctor like that. I am really sorry you had to deal with such an impatient person that you are supposed to trust your health to. You have every right to feel this way.

If you want a great doctor, I suggest Dr King at Firewheel Family Practice. He is extremely thorough, patient, and informative. He is hilarious and easy to talk to. My husband and I both see him. Anytime he has diagnosed us, he always knows within a couple questions and an exam. He is very knowledgable on a variety of topics.

I hope this helps you!

Hey M.,
I'm sorry that you're having to deal with a Dr like this. My son's first pediatrician was like that and we eventually changed after we weren't satisified with the response we were getting about his chronic ear infections.
The pediatrician my son sees now is OK but I have started taking my son to see our GP, Dr Robert Sparks in Rockwall. I have been seeing Dr Sparks since I was a child and take my entire family to see him. He is such a warm and caring man and really takes the time to talk to you about what's going on medically and also in your every day life.
Ask around to your family and friends to see if they can recommend another Dr. Eventually, I think you'll find a Dr that you are comfortable with.
