Who are real assholes. Seems to me the worst jerks were male military docs. Very patronizing to women and not very interested in actually working to help patients, especially females. My DH is retiring this year and I am looking forward to the switch to civilian health care. 90% of the military docs have been super but that other 10%.....shudder.
