    Worst Doc Ever

    This is the worst doctor I've ever had - she's a bad communicator, and has a terrible bedside manner, and really doesn't seem to put much thought into her evaluations. I once went in for a physical at a time when I was running 16+ miles a week and had a body fat percentage of 26% (she didn't know this) she told me that I was obese. Healthy body fat % for a woman is between 14-31%, so I was well within a healthy range. I was incredulous. When I told her I wasn't really that fat she snorted and said "you have a long way to go." If she can't figure out what obese is, how good is she going to be at evaluating lab results or figuring out what illness you have? This is just one of the many negative experiences I had with her, and ultimately I switched docs and ended up much happier to be rid of her.
