Shirin #125, ``If a dr. asks you `` where are you from ``, it should not be taken as an offence.It can be very safely included as part of history taking.``

I know and I agree, but not when that is the only ``historical`` question asked, and it`s not even relevant to the problem at hand. And another thing, a desi doctor asking another desi where they`re from is really not medical history taking persay.

I can say that in our case, the question wasn`t asked in terms of assessing the medical problem.

``The Good , the Bad and the Ugly, and all three of these varieties are found in every nation, every religion, so we cannot really do finger pointing .....``

But one get`s alarmed when they start seeing` trends in a certain groups` behavior.

``if you are not happy with your physician,just switch to someone else , with better bedside mamnners.It is very important for a pt. to feel comfortable with their physician.``

I agree but that`s easier said than done, especially in the case of specialists where the best might not have time for you, so you have to rely on others or risk your life or your family`s by waiting.

And unfortunately, some specialists use this vulnerability to their advantage, when they should be most perceptive and understanding during hard times.

scout # 132,

Unfortunately sounds quite messy.If it has bothered you , and are still bothered by it , dont shatter your nerves any further !Go do what the other 99% of Americans might have done in this situation ! or else just try to shake it out of your system.This is the perfect site for doing it !Yell,scream ,shout !

At least no body here will ask you ``Where are you from ``? its a guessing game in this room all the way.....

C`mon cheer up !

BTW Scout ``What is your name ``? just kidding !!
