A reader offers advice concerning doctor-patient relationships.
You told a reader to call doctors by their last name until invited otherwise. Your writer had called the doctor by the first name on the first visit. Had she never been to a doctor before? No one should think this is appropriate!
It’s not, “Let’s be pals” during a first visit. Yes, a friendly relationship may develop, but over many years and with mutual respect. I would think in college this patient called their professors “Dr. So and So,” but she doesn’t understand what to call her physician?
