This sentence of Racers triggered a thought off..
"Let's start out own medical school, teach them the part about patients being real people?"
(Racer will know where I am going at the moment)
The only way to change doctors opinions, and to stop them forming, is to go there and give training!
Contact your local hospitals, especially training ones, and ask if they do this kind of thing.. give service user training.. If they don't ask why.. tell them they should. If they do.. ask how you could get involved.Only with service users going in and telling thm what is good and what helps.. and also explaining what doesn't, and why..
You both speak so elequently, I know you could make a difference.
and, take my word for it, a difference can be made.. and it feels so so good!!

ps - Elaine, if by any chance you are in the UK, I can help with the getting involved side of things.. *s*
