Doctors shouldn't take Holidays
I was just listening to a doctor who's patient kept calling him througout the CNY holidays. This is the only time he has taken a long holiday...meaning 4 days to travel for CNY. The patient had a long list of complaints and in the end scolded the doctor for taking a holiday!
To all you well meaning patients out there, even doctors need a break. It's hard enough to get away without having patients pestering you on your day off. If your doctor is burnt out, your quality of care will suffer. Try complimenting or thanking your doctor and he will remember you gratefully...and perhaps it will give him/her the strength to carry on. And please don't keep calling your doctor on the phone or else soon you will be on the "pest" list.
