kag (2,947 posts)I LOST it with my doctor today. I'm fortunate to live in a very liberal/lefty/Democratic community. Both the town and county are very blue, politically speaking. The county to the south, however, are a bunch of gun-loving right wingers.These are mountain communities, and we have only one doctor for twelve miles in any direction. He's a really good doctor, but he lives south of here, and is as Trump-loving as they get. I know that sounds contradictory (a good doctor who loves Trump), and it feels a bit surreal sometimes...like today.I had to go by to pick up a prescription. I tend to not chat politics with him because he can be so maddening, but as I commented on the "strange times" we're in, he piped up with, "Well, Trump says it should only be two or three more weeks."I lost it."Well, Trump is an idiot," I blurted.I think it surprised him, because he stammered a little, "Well, yeah, he doesn't know about this stuff, so he has to rely on his experts.""But he's NOT, Michael, that's the problem!" I was kind of feeling it. "He's saying stupid shit, and he's getting people killed!"He quite literally mumbled something I couldn't hear, and I said my goodbyes and left.I really don't like to make things awkward between him and me. He has been very good to my family, but for crying out loud! He's a ****ing doctor, and he's still listening to the virus in chief for guidance!Thanks for letting me vent.https://www.democraticunderground.com/100213167696

I've only gotten a prescription from my doctor after a visit. Plus, I don't remember the last time I had a written prescription, they usually get emailed to the pharmacy.
This is a mentally deficient person that had an hallucination but if it were true, how stupid do you have to be to yell at the only doctor within miles?I foresee the doctor refusing to see this jackoff.
His next perscription will be for hemlock or fish tank cleaner.

Who addresses their doctor by their first name? The primitive was raised wrong.
