"You're a rich Doctor, you can afford it"
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sick of the "rich Dr." comment I could puke!!
I once sat in front of a patient that said such and figured on a piece of paper for a while. When they got tired of me doing such they asked what I was doing and I said:
According to what I just figured, The day I started working as a Doctor, I was down to the average person ........................$450,000!! Then I asked the patient: "How much would you charge for this examination, knowing that".
I once stopped a buddy of mine that works in a Nuclear plant that said the same thing and we figured up with benefits HE MADE MORE THAN I!! So I now call him a "rich so and so" every time I see him and laugh my *** off!!
Folks, this is one of the most rude things you can do. So, please don't do it.......it only makes me charge you more
Good fishing technique trumps all.....wish I had it.
