    My dad’s last doctor was visibly drunk all the time and would unashamedly scroll through my dad’s computer records during the appointment to figure out who he was talking to and what his problems were. And of course my dad loved this guy.

      The difference being most doctors do that before consultation begins, not during.
      At least the guy was honest.

      Sounds pretty awesome tbh. Most doctors I’ve seen don’t bother checking the records at all and I need to repeat everything (even tests) every visit. They also seem uncomfortable and bit lost when dealing with people. I thinks it’s a result of it becoming a highly paid, high status career, that is actually a service job. Brings in all the wrong people.
