Two of the nicest doctors I ever met were neurologoists with great social skills. My father's neurologist deftly handled my father AND my mother, while kindly letting me know that there was not much they could do and to let my father be as happy as possible. No easy task. :) He was even more laid back than my therapist.
My migraine doctor is the sweetest person! Even apart from her easing my headache pain, just having her enter the room is soothing. Although she's got a waiting line a mile long, she never appears rushed with each patient. And she's the one who thought it was great that I was seeing a therapist twice a week, because too many of her migraine clients don't get the care they need.
If she were a therapist, she just might tempt me away from mine. :)
