My doctor does this, too.  You can ask them to leave, but I usually don't, unless I have embarrassing issues or issues that require me to get naked.  But they never seem offended if I ask nicely to speak with my doctor alone.

A simple request would start out with the name of the appropriate person, supervisor, department head, director:ie., Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms/Dr.etc.  Then  follow it with the necessary reason for the request and the length of time requested.\n\nI am requesting a leave of absence to. . . . . .I would like to request . . . . . . . .weeks or . . .months.\n\nThank you for reviewing my request.  If you would like further information regarding it, I will be happy to supply it.\n\nIf the request is for a medical reason, be sure to enclose a copy of the physicians' request.\n\nAfter the leave is granted, a thankyou note would be appropriate.   Hope this helps.

You cannot take a person out of the hospital unless you are the legal guardian or Power of Attorney.  ANY patient can sign a release and be discharged from a hospital AMA (Against Medical Advice).  It does not matter if treatment exists for your disease or not.  It is your body, and you can do what you want with it, regarding medical care.  You have the right to refuse treatment, as long as you are mentally capable enough to do so.

ROFL... so much fun!  Nice word play.  I'd say that the doctor needing the doctoring will have to submit to the doctor doing the doctoring on the doctor that needs the doctoring.  It would be unethical for the doctor who needs the doctoring to try to tell the doctoring doctor how to do his job.  That is why the doctor who needs doctoring went to the doctor doing the doctoring in the first place, right?  LOL  - fun.

You shouldn't be asking your homework questions here.\n\nHmmm.  Why am I worried that someone who has to cheat to pass might just be a med student?

You really need to check with your school on that question.  \n\nIf it is for personal reasons, try to get documentation.  For example, if you were sick I would try to get a doctor's note to explain the circumstances. \n\nHope this helps!

You don't want to jeopardize his teaching career.  You shouldn't say anything unless the professor makes the first move.  If he makes the first move, then he's voluntarily putting his career on the line then.

Well technically if she does not have doctors note or something pre written so that school office is aware of what she has. There is really not much you can do.

i'm not a doctor yet (two more years), but if i were in her doctor's position, i'd say she should pretty much just say what you said. as long as she's not seeing some jerk, he'll be very willing to help out and get her family involved in the situation.  after your daughter has said that she's contacted her doctor about the situation and signed the release, call his office and then you can try to set up a time to talk with him about her case.

In what capacity? Can you email patient information? the answer is yes if the patient has signed a release of information and indicated in the release that he/she is okay with email communications. \n\nGenerally emailing your own in house colleagues on your own in house intranet using something other than patient names names is acceptable, ie "your two o clock cancelled" \n\nHowever as no computer program or email program is safe from hacking one has to take a reasonable approach and decide what is reasonable. I have worked in Health Information for more than 20 years and my stand is always the same... why put your patient privacy at risk? Just avoid email

In my state it is a clear statute that makes it illegal to have a relationship with a patient.  It is not appropriate.  You should find another doctor.  If you want to continue a personal relationship then that is your choice.  By the way, it is his fault.  He should know better.  Even if a patient were to throw herself at you, as a medical provider, it is your responsibility to keep the relationship professional...period.

tell your mom you want to switch doctors... you don't HAVE to go to her if you don't want to.. she shouldn't have said that...  tell your mom the truth, and then when you switch doctors just tell the lady that you feel more comfortable seeing a doctor that isn't a friend of the family or a fellow chruch parishner...

Concerning the teacher talk to her and tell her how her blatant disregard and disrespect for your plans bother you. Try to discuss with her how you two can come to a middle ground and an agreement about what to do with the children and activities for them. Concerning you dad you REALLY need to consult your family physician QUICKLY!!!

If it's not signed by a doctor it's not official. It can't be a doctor's note if it doesn't come from a doctor, silly. You trying to get out of class???

In light of the friendship that you and the two doctors have developed, I understand that they cannot  give you the level of care you deserve & why they asked you to find another doctor.\n\nYou can date whoever you wish. No relationship should be kept a secret though. It seems strange that you and the other doctor who you are already dating don't want people to know you are dating.  Does he have something to hide, like a wife and children?  \n\nDoes the new doctor know the other doctor?  Maybe they are comparing notes.  I feel that  if these docs want a sexual relationship with you right off the bat, that's probably all they want you for.  I see nothing but heartbreak ahead for you in this situation.

they should not be watching unless they are a student in training or something.  next time ask them to stand behind your head.  also if you don't want them in there they don't have to be.  i have kicked assistants out of exam rooms every time.  i just say I'm not comfortable with some one else being in here and they politely just leave.  its never been an issue.  if they give you a hard time tell them no deal you are finding a new doc.  you have rights.  and one of them is your privacy and the other is to refuse anything you want.

"but I don't want my kids to suffer later due to lack of attention from both the parents."\n\nThere's your answer, "doctor".
