When you see a doctor, there should never come a time for you to weigh the success of your surgery against the dignity afforded to you. It should never come into question, however, it did for me. Patients have the right be treated with human dignity and respect. Patients have the right to actively participate in their own medical treatment. Really, these are two rights you should pay attention to when you visit Dr. Downer. What's confusing is I don't get the sense that he knows when he violates these rights. That's the fallibility of a doctor who is perfect most of the time and so gives off the air that he might not care what you think because he's somewhat untouchable for the average Joe. His work is superior and recovery time for patients, beyond compare. The question is can you handle his dismissive behavior? Keep in mind that he's a mechanics man. He's still human and a top-notch doctor. I am still grateful. This is sad for me to say because I once liked him: when you're done, just walk away.
