Doctors in private practices who really want a vacation or a weekend off generally get another doc in the practice to cover for them, and then the answering service calls that person instead. If he called you back it probably means he was "on call". Besides, not being able to breath well is NOT one of these minor complaints about which any good health care professional would say, "Oh, that could've waited 'til Monday." Glad you're feeling better!Alishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704805929862792884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5716464676430798966.post-15822573853113011602011-03-07T22:37:41.260-05:002011-03-07T22:37:41.260-05:00I feel certain it didn't make him mad.

Even when it was a 45-minute call that was really more about the patient being afraid than about any real physical issue. Doug doesn't hate you.<br /><br />I'm glad you called him and very glad you're feeling better!OTRgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12433339525588500502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5716464676430798966.post-60067706051916350412011-03-07T10:54:01.507-05:002011-03-07T10:54:01.507-05:00I'm sure Doug isn't mad or upset, it's...I'm sure Doug isn't mad or upset, it's what doctors do, all the time. Good thing you called, it's less expensive and hassle free to take care of illness on the front end before it gets worse and you actually must go to the ER.
