Earning your doctor's respect

If you want your doctor to respect you, you need to earn this respect !
There are some simple rules to follow.

The first one is the Golden Rule - treat your doctor the way you would like him to treat you ! If you want him to respect you, you need to respect him ( and his staff )as well. Be punctual; help him to help you by carrying all your medical records and paperwork; organise yourself so you can make effective use of his limited time; and prepare for your visit by doing your homework !
