OK, I've quit laughing out loud... what a crack up. The error was mine. Had I read your post more carefully, what you were trying to say was obvious. My interpretation is colored by being exhausted, in a hurry, being in Germany with American clients and having done this over and over again during the last decade (almost). Your post was perfectly clear.

I agree that many (if not most) doctors are language impaired. However, I think it's not really a language barrier as much as a bandwidth issue. With more bandwidth, you'd be able to have a more meaningful exchange per precious second of their time. Of course, if they spent more time with you, they could get away with such limited bandwidth.

Good luck!
