Terry,
I dissagree, I had a doctor see me and treat me one time. I was very sick with my crohns at the time loosing weight and my hair. I didn't go back to see him for a good 4 or 5 months because we couldnt afford to see him. We didn't have insurance at that time. We went back for the fear of me dying. He then waved his fee. He waved his fee for the rest of the time he was my doctor. (we moved 4 yrs later) Even after we got insurance he waved his fee. He got me feeling better. He never made me pay for medicine either. He got me samples and even paid for my remicade treatments, out of his pocket. He was a wonderful man and I give thanks for him every day.I think there are wonderful doctors out there, you just have to find one. Since moving I have had to go to three doctors to find one that listens to me. Its like a puzzle you have to find the right fit. I hope your new doctor will listen to you and give you the attention that you need.
