This is why I never wanted to be a doctor.

This woman wants to have her doctors license revoked because he told her the truth. She is obese and needs to loose weight before it kills her. As unpleasant as that is to hear, he was not calling her fat, making fun of her, or demeaning her. He was doing his job as a doctor and trying to help her be healthy.

Further proof that some people should not be allowed to reproduce or raise anyones young.

i was going to title this about stupidity but thought everyone would think it was her.

As soon as I have something else lined up or have enough photo gigs booked that I know I won't have to be tooo worried about money. Been applying to jobs and getting some nibbles. Just gotta wait and see what happens.

As we discussed before. Once you get old enough you can run as my VP running mate on the "Thin the Herd" platform.

My Doctor has used the "F" word (f*T) on me. Gee, I laughed and agreed with him after all I do have a mirror and you can't hide the obvious. This world is going to H%@L in a hand basket, don't guess you can "call'em like you see'em" anymore.

I am still in disbelief over this story. There has to be more to it. What state medical board is going to investigate a doctor because he called his patient obese? I'm sure these medical boards get hundreds of complaints weekly. Most of the absurd ones are probably just thrown out.

This story just does not add up!

I've called some of my patients "crazy" for smoking. I'd better watch out that the state of Florida doesn't pull my license.
