That is extremely maddening and frustrating! I had issues with my RO too. She was extremely bright but zero empathy and social skills. Absolutely terrible bedside manner. Sometimes the more brilliant the doctor the worse they are with social interaction. Being a RO is the equivilant of a rocket scientist. Look at all the sophisticated equipment-- there is a lot involved. They tend to be super nerdy and not great with patients... not all of them of course--- but I've heard this same complaint from others. Mine was one of the rudest most insensitive individuals I've ever met. Completely callus and inappropriate.

Definitely get a second opinion on your situation- see if you can see a partner or something. I switched Drs. within the same hosiptal and have been so much happier.
