Skany Evil Repulsive Patient Coordinators

OMG, I am so sick of patient coordinators. They post here under so many IDs one would swear they change their underwear less often than they change their IDs. When we catch them red handed with various IDs they just stop using those IDs and create more!

I even received a PM from one of them asking me not to post her doc's stats. I suppose it makes him look bad but 4% erosion will do that considering global stats are 1.3%. This same doc claims to "cure" erosion with Proton Pump Inhibitors and he backs his claims up with a self funded study. That's like putting antibiotic cream on your nose to cure a toothache. Nexium, Protonix, and those types of drugs are NOT going to cure erosion but it can put off treatment until there is enough damage done to the stomach to harm the patient. It can't work and it doesn't work.

These people have no problems faking posts, pretending to be unhappy patients of other doctors, spreading links around with half truths and misinformation, but if one dares to post the FACTS of their own employer, you'd think the world was coming to an end.

Ever since Lauren and I did the "Researching Mexican Doctors 101" thread they chase me around like a neurotic yapping 4# Poodle stuck to my ankle. Sometimes it's annoying but other times I know we did a good job on that thread and it makes me smile to see how they have responded. It irritates them to see people learning what questions to ask, how to see who is dodging information, and how to research.

What really blows my mind above and beyond all is why in the world would anyone work for a doc, or why would any patient refer another person to a doc with horrible stats? Why would anyone NOT want people to research and find the best doc for them? I don't get it. Where is the bond fat people have to take good care of one another? To specifically ask me not to post the stats of a doc because it makes him look bad, how horrible is that? What kind of a jackass does it take to want to hide information like that from potential patients?

Yet these same people do anything they can to trash the good docs. I suppose if they worked for a quality surgeon with actual experience vs. the "claimed" experience, they wouldn't have to trash the good docs to make their silly, 4% erosion stat doc look good.

I guess the almighty dollar speaks loud and clear and certainly carries more weight than someone getting a safe surgery. It just seems like here, above and beyond any other place, we should be supporting people and helping them to find good docs. Not worrying about $$.

These people even started a new thread when I posted their doc's stats because they claimed I "ruined" it by posting FACTS.

Is it $$? Is it denial? Is it shame for not doing their own research before their own surgery? WTH?

People still continue to amaze me. I hate patient coordinators. They make used car salesmen named Honest Ernie look like Gods in comparison.

By the way, some of you know an awful lot about multiple screen names. You must be moderators, right? Hackers? A few people claim to know me. I don't think LBT is allowed to give out personal information without a subpoena, so how do members know my personal business?

God told me, that's how I knew it was you.

last i heard...wabb had 144 different ids on the board...she's a genius for keeping track of all of 'em!!!
Yeah, I think every single person that has every agreed with her is supposed to be one of her SNs. Or at least, that's what some people want us to think. :heh:

Just keep talkin because you keep digging yourself deeper and deeper. This is the thread that you attacked Wasa on, so therefore this is where everyone retaliated in her defense. Wasa can post on any thread she damn well pleases whether you start it or not. As long as she keeps it to topic and that's what she did. I know you can't really be that naive to think that she can't post anywhere on this site if you start the thread. Stalking would be if she went to the thread you started and actually started shit with you there.

Like I said earlier. You promise you would leave. So go. You obviously are only making yourself look more ridiculous.

God told me, that's how I knew it was you.

ROTHLMAO. Really? Now I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall during that conversation.

You can't be WASa because I am WASa. We are everywhere!

Oh wait a minute. I better change my tickler. Then I can be WASA

with fabulous weight loss in less than a year who knows all about bands inside and out. She is such a WEALTH of information!

You can't be WASa because I am WASa. We are everywhere!

No, I am, damn it! Or at least, that's what just about every single one of the people that have grudges against WASa have said. :heh: They never come up with anything original. 'Course, that might be because a lot of them are the same person, but who knows?
