Yeeep. We are on the same wavelength. I literally opened my argument with the same idea, last time we had the convo : she's the one with the doctorates, plural. She should be the one telling them what she can and can't handle. Feck, her head doctor is on the same page too. Unfortunately that sort of power seems to come with age and even at 40 she still doesn't have that kind of attitude. One could attribute this to her gender, I suppose, but having seen my dad do exactly the same thing throughout his career until he reached near retirement age, and having seen all my dad's colleagues do the same thing, hopefully you get the idea.

There just isn't enough time and too many patients for not enough doctors. Always. And most doctors want to help their patients, so they just don't count the hours, until the work is done.
