Pet Name For Neuro--Just For Fun

I was just writing a PM to Kristin, and I came up with a nice new Pet Name for my Neuro

I will call him Dr. OTF (on the fence)

Kinda like Rena's "lying doc"

Anyone else care to name their doc's???  (And NO, it can't be %^$&&$#@)!!!!!)

Hi Everyone!

I hope you don't mind but I really enjoyed this old post and figured hey, why not revive it for the newbies, like me :)

I, as you all know now, am on my 18th neurologist but 3 deserve names:

Dr. Evil Tiny Little Man (I'm not really referring to his stature here, but in retrospect he did seem to have a Napoleon complex over something...UH-EM.

To the Neuro that finally listened about my seizures he is  Lucky Charms as he does kind of look like a cute little leprechaun, in a good way, lol.

For the new one who so far I really like: he is my Mechanic. I explained the muscle twitches in my legs by comparing it to a car engine cooling down (ping, ting, ping, ping, ting) and we both got a pretty good laugh so he is now and forevermore MY MECHANIC! :)

Well that is sure a sour indication of what our neurologists are like and that maybe an overhaul needs to be done of the neurosurgeons....so far we have had about 14 "nasty" names and...add em' up...hmmmm...1...count it...ONE nice name!

THAT IS HORRENDOUS NEWS FOR US THE PATIENT'S ISN'T IT???

But it sure is fun to hear what other people have for names for their loser neuro's!!!  I still say my favorite is Bear Bait!!!

My gracious Neuro, whom I adore, is "Dr. Eye-Wings.."  Eye make up is definitely stuck in a time wrap from the 70's.  But she IS a good Neuro.  Thank God after all these years of searching....

CAROL,

I CAN'T REPEAT HEAR WHAT I'D LIKE TO CALL THAT DR.

I AGREE WITH ELAINE,I ONCE RECEIVED A DR.BILL  FROM A NEUROSURGEON,IT WAS 665.00 FOR A DR.VISIT FOR 5 MINUTES.NOW MIND YOU I DROVE 3 HOURS EACH WAY FOR THIS APPOINTMENT,PLUS THE TIME I WAITED IN THE WAITING ROOM.
I DIVIDED MY TIME BY 5 MINUTES AND THEN MULTIPLIED IT BY 665.00,THEN SENT HIM MY BILL FOR MY TIME,SINCE HE WASTED IT.IT WAS LIKE 300,000 SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND I GOT A BILL IN THE MAIL FOR A ZERO BALANCE.
I'D SEND THAT DR WANNA BE THE HOSPITAL BILL AND ANY AFTER CARE COST

Hi Carol,
   I can't find a printable name for that doctor, but I would recommend not paying that bill!!!   Instead I would send her the hospital bill for the fiasco with the LDN that she is responsible for.

  Find a good attorney that will write a nice nasty letter for you.  Or do it yourself.  But don't pay the bill.  Your money would be better spent travelling to see your precious grandchild.

  Did I ever tell you that I registered a complaint with the Mayo Clinic and they erased our second bill??  So keep your money.

  I think ess's "compassion of a cobra" description would fit this neuro too.

Hmmm!  Let me see,  The great Doctor E.......s,  What all did she do for me?  (I need to ask myself this so  can figure out what to all her, so bare with me)

I've decided to let ya'll pick out a name for my lady doctor.  I'm afraid that since we are not allowed to use profanity I'll not be unable to pick one out. hahahaheeheehee   Here is a list to help you understand what type of person she is.

1.  didn't explain how to administer the LDN
2.  by the time the ambulance got there I was crazy in pain and she wouldn't answer the
     emergency phone number.
3.  I was in ICU for 3 days and my family doc. left message after message with no return
     call.  
4.  On the 3rd day her nurse called and said, I quote, "that's too bad, tell her not to take
     the LDN any more until we can see why this happened."  Of course my family doc
     had already figured that one out.  haha
5.  This just happened Friday:  After all this time they sent me a bill for $946.00 and I
     only saw her 2 times.  I called to ask what they where billing me for and it was for 2
     visits and 5 phone consultation calls. Plus they filed with Medicare and I don't even
     have medicare, I have a medicare option plan.  (dumb)
6.  Do ya'll want me to go on or is this enough to help me pick out a good name?

If you need any more information about her just let me know.

I'll be praying,
Carol

You should draw a bullseye on that pic at the mall and have some well deserved target practice!  

I think that might help with some venting.....

Great Topic Tammy!!!!

Well first I would have to call him "the King of SSRI's" as he felt that all could be fixed by these.

Next he was short and his condescending attitude and demeanor when he said
"PFFFT,  You do not have MS". and then almost laughed as he wrote me ANOTHER RX for a 2nd SSRI to go along with the first one he had given me.!!!!!!

SORRY Guys, hit a note here, My first neuro's picture is in a poster at the mall and I saw it yesterday and everytime I walk by it I just want to beat the **** out of him!

Some anger issues, NAAAHHHH!!

Doing deep breathing exercises!

This thread is just cracking me up!!!!  LOL!!!!

I guess if I had a pet name for mine, it would be "BACK-PEDDLER".

After shocking the stuffing out of me with "Looks like MS, especially with your symptoms" when reviewing my first MRI results (I never suspected it), he's gone on to say "I wish I never mentioned MS"  and  "I never said you could have MS".

By the way, that Dr. Hunk sounds REAL interesting!!!  ;-)  Thanks for sharing him T-Lynn!!!

You know, now that I think of it, I could have called him "Dr-talks-about-MS-at-every-visit-could-be-maybe-not-I'm-just-not-sure-yet-give-it-time-we'll-figure-it-out-someday", but I thought that might be too long....
