Really any time people are allowed to complain you get some decent criticism and then mostly utter bullshit the rest of the time.

People suck and the customer is often wrong as hell.

Um if doctors didn't want complaints then they should get good and stop being sucky doctors. Duh.

I dunno not being able to tell your side of the story to the person reviewing the complaint sounds like a bad thing.

You guys should hear some of the bullshit complaints docs get, though. "He told me losing weight would help my blood pressure/diabetes! How rude!" "The sidewalk leading to the doctor's office had an empty plastic grocery bag on it, disgusting!" "This doctor charges too much, my copay should be $0!"

Patients can be loving stupid as poo poo.

I know a person who had to do a review with HR because the patient's daughter overheard her relaying to another facility that the patient had a "history of A.P.E" (which means her lungs pretty much spontaneously fill up with fluid sometimes) and the daughter thought she was using the same tactic you use on four year olds to call her mother an ape in front of her without her realizing it. HR took this seriously by the way, wanted to know why she couldn't just use another term or just say the condition out in its entirety to avoid the issue (acute pulmonary edema). I believe they made her sign a written warning.

Another term is also in vogue for mostly the same condition so I switched to using CPE just to avoid that nonsense. This meant that when I talked to one segment of the healthcare population (the one I worked in) people would not at first know what I was talking about as the term APE was the normal one there.

Gotta nuke something
I never had much sympathy for doctors, but my last shred of it for them disappeared when I overheard two docs talking about other people working in a hospital as "the little people", and patients as "plebs". That, and if you fake being really nice to the ladies from said little people and plebs, they'll often bring you some home-cooked food the next time they see you.

you nailed it, OP

its just like your job at McDonalds

e: apparently people complain about you a lot at mcdonalds and you feel bad? want to elaborate?

complaints at mcdonalds have been conclusively shown to increase the cum content of milkshakes and "special" sauce by as much as 48% i don't know about you but i am concerned for the mental well being of my fast food server

I feel sorry for the construction workers like roofers who are up there killing themselves for almost nothing, same with doctors, some guy that's getting crushed to death at an EMR terminal somewhere just trying to get through his forty Medicaid referrals is pitiable. Some pill vending psych or skin treatment saleslady in their respective private offices in Manhattan should have to suck off their patients if they want to get paid.

Something has gone horribly wrong.
The simple fix is to make the complaint processes two way. I carry pre-printed forms for or each major social offence I plan to commit. Your feedback matters!

Yeah, but the money.

Significantly easier ways to make a medical doctor's salary. Even a specialist's earnings. Not to mention years of residency and starting debt.

Its a lovely job only for the vocational.
