No kidding! What patient of any illness or disease wouldn't do better with an empathetic doctor? I don't even know why an article like this one should have to be written. In my opinion, our doctor should be the one person we can count on to give us a sound ear for our concerns and support for our fight with a chronic illness. Too often, though, that is not the case. Doctors over-schedule patients and in that rush to treat them all in a day, it leaves them very little time to spend with any one of them. It only stands to reason that if we feel our doctor is listening to our perspective and concerns and giving feedback and support, we will do better with our illness.
