I agree wholeheartedly,
just because you're an expert in one field doesn't
confer expertise in another.
The sad thing is that other people believe it too -
like the consultant orthopaedic surgeon who took it
upon himself to advise a GP (and former geriatric
registrar) how he should treat his geriatric patients.
Arrogance has no place in modern medicine, the only
way the NHS will work is when we all realise that we
are a team with equal - if different - skills.
Don't even get me started about a GP recently who
shouted that "he was the doctor and he's in charge!!"
To some very experienced paramedics of my aquaintance
during a resus in the community.
rant rant rant !!!!!!!!
