My doctor is young and cute. I chose her only because our family doctor of over 18 years was retiring. Additionally I chose her because she had gone to my school. Well, her looks helped too! So she looks at me and says "look at my little fingers (holding up her hand with her fingers spread out) now, would you want a male doctor whose fingers are twice my size?" I let her do it.

Bottom line (no pun intended, this time), try different doctors until you find the one that makes sense for you. I've been in a teaching hospital for 25 years; It doesn't matter, male or female, as long as they are a good doctor and you're comfortable with them. Oh yeah, and that goes for ethnic or national background as well. Just as long as it's not that socialized medicine. --- Just kidding; just wondering if the Canadians are listening. We're listening... where did you say you live? I didn't and I'm not going to. You just made me think about something: my son's best friend's mom is Canadian! |

For years we've been planting 'agents' all over the US...especially California & Florida. Be especially nice to Canadians! |

I joined some friends for the last half of their vacation and then I stayed for a few extra days and met my Canadians. The Canadians were easy people to hook up with; nothing but good times with some good folks. We covered PV pretty well. I just remembered that trip and those people a couple of months ago. Good memories. |

Good memories. I recently sold a 5th wheel camper to a young lady from Quebec, Canada. Both my wife and I were impressed with her very polite, friendly and trusting nature. She went out of her way to make sure we were as comfortable with the deal as she was. Refreshing, in this day and age. RCE |

RCE There was a John Candy movie involving a clandestine military (more like militia) invasion of Canada. One of the scenes involved the humor surrounding the politeness of Canadians even as they were being invaded, captured, and restrained. I sure do miss John Candy (everyone's Uncle Buck). I'm sure it could happen, but so far I've never met an unpleasant Canadian. Then again maybe I should read some archived rec.boats threads to see if that's really true. |
