    Well said.

    Pursue any legal course of action you can take.. if that doesn't work, take one of his.
    Or file a complaint with the medical board to have his license revoked.

    What a ****ing piece of shit. Man, I'd lose it if a doctor said that to me or that was my mom. Some of these pricks have absolutely no business practicing medicine.

    Phone an injury Lawyer and if they take the case they won't charge you a cent! They will take 30% of what ever your poor ma settles for. It's a simple process. Sorry to hear about your mom, that's messed up!!

    Gotta agree with the lawsuite part. I hate the doctors in my hometown with a passion, they knew 5yrs ago my dads kidneys were at 50%. Today he is at 11%. Take the doctor for whatever you can.

    Ya know, for being so educated, doctors are pretty ****ing dumb. My mom went to get a cut on her foot looked at that was swollen. It was clearly infected so what does this asshole doc do? Instead of perscribing antibiotics he takes a swab, and it takes a week and a half for the result to come back. Well during this time the infection spread and now my mom has to have a toe and finger amputated.

    So after not hearing from them for a week my mom went to the walk in clinic and the doc there said she should have been started on antiboitics right away. So now she's on these really powerful antibiotics that are making her puke and everything to try and clear up this infection that should have been taken care of by the first doc.

    These dipshits are so disorganized when they got the results finally they called the house and said " we have the results about the cut on your arm." My mom goes what the **** are you talking about the cut was on my foot. Of course they didn't know what to say. How do you mix that up? Seriously!WTF!

    Oh oh oh and here's the ****ing topping! My mom goes back to the first doc and tells him what happened and says thanks asshole now I'm losing a toe and maybe a finger because of you. You know what this asshole said?! "it's just a toe." It's just a ****ing toe! Who the **** says that! It's not your ****ing toe! I want to go down there with bolt cutters and snap off one of his toes and be like " hey it's just a toe."

    In fact I am gonna go down there and cause a big ass scene in his office. Maybe smash a chair or two. **** it.
    My family suffered at the hands of a doctors negligence also, malpractice lawsuits arent common in canada but they are not unheard of, consider talking to pdh about this. Canadian doctors must carry liability insurance for a reason.

    Something like this happened to a friend, she was in deep pain but they said her treatment would be on hold just to wait for a test results. A day went by and they haven't informed her yet, so he went to a walk-in clinic for a second opinion, the Dr. gave her something to ease her pain immediately and pushed for a minor surgery.

    Who knows what might have happened if she waited for her GP's call. Lesson is if you are not satisfied with the treatment they give you go to another doc for confirmation.

    Agreed...It sucks what happened to your Mom and the doctor is a low-life. That being said, we take our cars to different mechanics for a second opinion and get multiple quotes on house repairs. We should do the same for ourselves.

    You can act as tough guy as you want but deep down everyone loves there mother. I no i do. And if someone negligence hurt her like this i would be absolutly angry and torn about it. Im not very educated on malpractice lawsuits and i know its expensive but i would love to see DR.Douche pay for such a stupid ass mistake.

    my experience with docs

    a buddy went to the doc with intense abdominal pain and was told to go home and eat some yogurt for his "tummy ache". well, the doc must be right no? went home ate yogurt, started puking everywhere, back to emergency and with a new doctor they find out his stomach is riddled with ulcers and bleeding, he spends the next week in the hospital eating ice chips.

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    a past GF had extremely bad menstrual complications every month. on the floor in the fetal position crying from cramps, sometimes experiencing crazy flow and sex was almost always painful. after a year of going to her MD and nothing being done, i pop on google and start narrowing down her symptoms. endomitriosis is what i come up with, so i send her to the doc and tell her not to take any shit and demand a test for it. well damned if she wasnt soon booked in for surgery for endomitriosis.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    or my step mother that was told for years she was a hypochondriac until they finally tested her for MS. nice one douche bags.
