Top 10 Reasons to Look for a New Doctor
(particularly in psychiatry)
10. he wears elf slippers and talks baby talk to adolescents
9. asks if your boy/girl twins are identical
8. his standard poodle "therapy dog" humps your leg
7. threatens to charge you a maintenance fee if he can't reprogram the timer on his fish tank (that your child unplugged)
6. suggests botox for your teenager's anxiety
5. wears a 3-piece suede suit in Southern California
4. tells you he learned everything he knows about drugs by using them
3. keeps you waiting 30 minutes then apologizes that he "had a suicide"
2. excuses himself for extended periods of time to a broom closet marked: "Do not Enter"
1. suggests you blog about how great he is
Let me just say that I never tell a lie (who needs to write fiction when real life is so utterly unbelievable).
A word to the wise in the world of autism intervention and treatment: There are always other fish in the sea.
This is unbelievable. I would definitely find a new doctor!!!!
