Being a marginally reasonable person, I acquired a different doctor directly. Matters have worked well since.
''Ask Your Doctor'' was, unfortunately, one of my typically don't-give-up-the-day-job attempts at humour (sigh...).
BTW, speaking historically -- this may have changed, but I'm not aware of any revised stats -- the favoured method of suicide of **doctors** is and has been for years just 10mg NaNCH (sodium cyanide) push.
