I took a girl to a "diet doctor" to get some weight loss pills. The doctor never even seen her the second visit. the first one he talked to her for about 1 minute. The PA is the one who took care of everything everything. They never even checked blood work to make sure her body was in good enough shape to handle the pills. Luckily "we know one" and had this checked first. Is this really the type of care we want from our personal doctors?
