The doctors that want to care for people usually spend more time in acute care or family practice. Specialists often begrudge face time.

I do appreciate hearing what others think and know that it takes ALOT to type out a comment that long. ;)<BR/><BR/>I found nothing brilliant about Dr O (I don't use their actual names on here) I'm afraid nor would I consider him very high up but that doesn't mean someone else feels just the opposite.

Tai chi (and Pilates, yoga or any GENTLE stretching) is far more therapeutic and less likely to cause pain and exhaustion. <BR/>Why is it that some docs would rather be right than helpful?
