If a patient asks a doctor to only contact her at work should the doctor honor that request?
Yes, I think that a doctor should acknowledge and honor just about anything a patient says. If the patient is ignored or feels ignored, then the doctor needs to try to help the patient so they can keep the patient with his/her services. I have had a patient that threatened to sue the hospital because I called her to late at night. All patients should be Honored and Respected. J. Idol, MD Neurologist NC

As my EMS Chief says the man with the Gun is in charge... when it comes right down to it, it is the polices job to enforce the laws.
