I have the good fortune to have two good doctors. I use Doc Don and also a
D.O. (doctor of osteopathy ) who will work with me. That's really the key, a
doctor who will work with you and not just try for particular lab results.
We took my wife to two endos, neither picked up on her thyroid problem, one
was so arrogant he didn't even look at any labs or ask her about her eating
habbits and told her the solution was Phen-Fen, a dangerous appetite
suppressant. The kind of doctor doesn't matter, only if they will work with
you.
