a letter to the healthcare professional. now don't take this the wrong way but this is going to get ugly. we have tried the 'productive' method of talking with you but it was not received. so we are just going to spell it out here, what so many of us need when we come to see you in all your forms, be you doctor, nurse, therapist that deal with matters of the body to matters of the head, case managers/social workers, really any form of 'care' provider, to just name a few. now we the patient, the client, the self, hereby resolve to do our part, we will even do more if it means we can find a middle ground. but you have to do your end. somehow despite your desire to do so, the ability to give the patient what she needs has oft been lost in the process. it is also acknowledged that some of you far exceed expectations and we are grateful beyond words. we sing your praises to our peers. but to the rest of you, what keeps you from even meeting our expectations. and you cannot say it's just insurance company demands, although we do see you struggling under that heft, but together we can make the most of those 5, 10, 15 and rare 30-45 minutes. so here are some points you might want to consider.
