Your post is a perfect example of why so many of us refuse to ever share any personal information on this forum.

And any physician who said such a thing is clearly not a good representative of the profession.

You just can't fix ""narcissism/egocentrism"".

Some people just can't help themselves.

An ophthalmologist is a medical doctor, so I'm including mine. My ophthalmologist, endocrinologist, p c p, gynecologist, orthopedic specialist. So, I have five doctors.

What a heartless thing to say, and I am being kind when I say that. Born with mild cerebral palsy and blessed with a good immune system. 1. PCP 2. Oncologist 3. Orthopedist 4. Pain Management 5. Kidney Specialist 6. Dermatologist 7. Gynecologist Was especially healthy in the past, saw a dr very rarely. Fast forward to age 50, that is when I ended up with these, but feel fortunate to be able to have them all. Sorry this is hard to read, on IPAD

We are anonymous on this board. No one is even giving out their doctor's name -- which is often shared on health boards. Who uses the number of doctors they see or specialty as the basis for a password?? How in heaven's name is this a ""data mining goldmine""? Please be specific.
