I agree. Hopefully you realize that I was not saying the best doctors are bullies. Some are though.
We all prefer a good doctor with a good attitude. Sometimes though, particularly when you are dealing with a rare disorder where specialists aren't a dime a dozen, you have to take the bad with the good if that is what is available.
It took 15 years to finally find a specialist with the knowledge to treat my husband who also had a great attitude. In the meantime though, we had to put up with some pretty snotty specialists who were extremely good with their medical expertise; we just hated their attitudes but at least the medical care was maintained. We kept looking in the meantime and eventually found the specialist he's been with for the last almost 15 years now, and we are thrilled that not only is he a great expert in my husband's condition but he is also a pretty nice guy. We finally have the best of both worlds, but it was a long search to find it.
