Amen, Bert.
I have much more sympathy for rude patients than rude consultants, however. If you could be a fly on the wall in their lives, you might see why they are rude. Not that we should be taking all their crap but maybe that's why they pay us the BIG BUCKS. With all respect, you guys sound like you need a vacation. I just got back from one and I am finding myself much more tolerant for the time being. As for the rude consultants, they should see a gastroenterologist. They might be able to tell them what to do with our records and necessary consults.
