I can't believe that we have to put our lives in the hands of doctors. I had to take my brother to the emergency room today. Just in case someone other than my daughter actually reads this, I will tell you a little bout my brother.
Several years ago he was diagnosed with Basil Squamous Cell Carcinoma (2 different types of skin cancer) He has already had the cancer removed from his face (which took lil over 3/4 of the left side of his face, from right under the bone at his eye, if you draw a line with a sharp pencil that the size of the bone that is left, all his teeth, 1/2 of his pallet, 1/2 his bottom and top jaw, the entire sinus cavity on the left, and the entire left side of his nose.) and has had what the doctors call reconstructive surgery. That a whole different story. Anyways you get the idea.
Today I had to take him to the emergency room. He was complaining of the left side of his face hurting real bad. (Hurting more than normal) And it was swollen. (if you didn't know him you couldn't tell that it was swollen) Anyways, he was hurting so bad that he asked me to take him to the ER.
This is where the story gets really bad. When the doctor comes in the room and asks why hes there, we tell him. Then he looks at us and asks "What do you want me to do about it?" Can you believe those words came from the mouth of a doctor? Oh but wait it gets better. Thankfully they didn't find anything wrong except that the CT Scan did show some inflammation and allot of fat. (That while looking at my brothers face the doctor couldn't figure out why. Yet another stupid comment coming from the mouth of a doctor. But wait guys it does get better, believe it or not. He is looking us straight in our eyes and asks us word for word guys. Here is the best part and the reason I cant believe that "We really have to depend on them" He literally looks us in the eyes and seriously asks us (wait for it, here it comes guys.) " So what kind of doctor would you see for this?" ((CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT CAME FROM THE MOUTH OF A DOCTOR!!)) He was seriously asking us. We both just looked at him laughing and telling him Shoot we were hoping you could tell us.
I can't believe we have to put our lives in their hands. I have had to deal with allot of doctors that Ive had my doubts about. But I have to say he took the cake. At least the other doctors played it off that they knew what they were doing. You are putting your life in their hands to make you better. I'm beginning to think it would be safer to go to a bum on the street and ask him to make you better. At least with bums they can tell you either they don't have a clue or lie to you. And the money you give them will 90% of the time be helpful. (the other 10% going to drugs, which probably isn't any different than the doctors)
So just to let everyone know. If you have to go to RICHARDSON REGIONAL HOSPITAL in Richardson, Tx, DO NOT ALLOW DR. PETER HUI ANYWHERE NEAR YOU!!!!
