I just think that some need to watch their patients better

What exactly does this mean?

Apart from interval visits (at which you can learn nothing useful from a drug addict), what sort of "watching" do you think should be done?

If you were Rush Limbaugh's doctor, how would you "watch him better"? I mean, specifically, what yould you recommend that a doctor could actually do?

Pill addicts are a nightmare in your practice. They are expert liars and decievers, whose entire day is structured around scoring off of you in a fifteen minute encounter, which for you is one of twenty to forty such encounters-one right after the other.

"Watching them closer" is for television. We, unfortunately, work in reality.

Then don't treat drug addicts whose ailment is a need for more drugs, Doctor.

From your post, you can obviously see them from a mile away... And you still deal with them?
