Guest guest Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 I found an excellent rheumatologist at the local medical school. I was unemployed at the time and had enough life insurance money from my late (beloved) husband that I could afford to go anywhere - at least temporarily. When he found out I was an unemployed widow with two kids, he cut his fee in half. I had no idea what was ahead in my life, but he gave me clear-cut goals and always listened to me attentively. A great, gentle wonderful man. He also donated time to treating the Navaho on their reservation - which is not close by. He retired this year - at least as far as seeing patients goes. I heard a rumour that some group in California had enticed him to join their research effort. I hope he does, for he will bring great compassion and intelligence to bear on the problem. Wish me luck in finding another gem like him. Nina in Tucson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
