SEVEN HABITS OF ANNOYING PATIENTS

BERKELEY, Calif. (Wireless Flash) – Some doctors are losing patience with their patients. Internist Dr. Oscar London from Berkeley, California says there are seven types of patients that make him sick, including... “Sophia Logorrheas:” Patients who ask doctors for advice but don’t let him or her speak. “Janet Chondroitins” always insist that herbs and chiropractic are better than modern medicine. “Seymour Jogalots” believe diet and exercise prevent all problems. And “Mildred Ratcheds” are sweet to their doctor but a bitch to his staff. Dr. London is the author of the new book, From Voodoo To Viagra (10 Speed Press).
