Tell them that your pre existing statistics on how often you have been in the hospital in only TWO years is enturely unacceptable to you. That you will do everything in your power not to permit that to happen again, including firing them and finding another pdoc. I do think the next pdoc will respect you after you have said this.

Of course this has to be in your own words.

Great advice if one lives in a major metropolitan location and has fantastic health insurance. Otherwise, one is lucky to find a pdoc at all.
