Relationships with doctors
Can
be awkward, even though
You
discuss the same old problems
Every
time that you may go.
Yet if you have a physician
You
have seen for many years,
All
self-consciousness and tension
Somehow
quickly disappears.
He’ll
remember all your symptoms –
Be
they serious or not –
And
will take his time explaining
What
you have or haven’t got.
There
might even be some jokes about
Appointments
in the past
And
you realize that you’re lucky,
For
such bonds so rarely last.
As
my other docs retired
Or
switched practices on me,
I
feel grateful I’m connected, still,
To my same old G.P.
