I hear ya Al, I had a retired Navy Dentist in Florida. He knew I was a Viet Nam Vet and he never charged me except for material such as x-rays, caps and Novocain. I hope you aren't including VA Doctors, I've run into a few good ones, one great one and a lousy one that shouldn't treat animals; because of that one I'm permanently hampered by a torn tendon in my right arm. When I tore the tendon and had a bulging bicep she said is was strain and with time would heal. After a year and still with pain when twisting a wrench I saw a different Dr and she sent me to an Orthopedic Surgeon. After MRI and x-rays I was told it's to late to do anything, the tendon is detached from the bone and scar tissue would prevent re-attaching it. The Dr that said it was a strain was my civilian primary care physician, she left the office where I used to see her and is now a VA Dr.
