That was the most succinct summary of the attitude i've seen many times amongst doctors. I'm saving that :D

It's always funny when someone thinks they're the center of attention... yes in a perfect world I'd remember everything and care only about you but if I do that I won't be finished my job. After a while I've noticed even as a student (and certainly picked up that a few doctors) that if you try care on a more personal level about every person, you'll be knocked down more and it'll be harder to function. Hence why I think a middle ground or even lack of care is what you see.
