Good Comment Bert
I was in sales before I became a doctor and have seen both ends of the street. I like to be courteous. Sales training made me a better doctor as we sell cures all the time. I hate to say it, but we could all use some sales training and then medicine wouldnt feel so bad. As for the female thing - my young female reps have all been completely above board, full of knowledge, and helpful. I even tutored a young rep (with her boss present) when they changed her drug to Levitra as she was going to get beat up selling it to some doctors that I know - as she was a former Penn State Cheerleader....she did great and I was proud of her. Now she runs a small insurance company. You never know who walks in your door and will be able to help you tomorrow.
