This is a woman who is a miserable,  callous  physician  in my opinion. She seems to not understand the value of a human life and in my own  experience with her,   she tried to minimize the value of my young’s sisters life and tried to talk me into expediting  the end of my dusters life when she was I’ll on more than one occasion. 
My sister lived thru some of the times this Dr recommended death asking about the value of a persons life.  That’s not fir this stranger to determine 
.  As a physician myself  I find her a disgraceful person the way she treated the illness of my family member and shutter to think how she treats  others 
I’ve personally never known someone this bad . . She just was cold and unsympathetic. I’m glad I do not need to deal  her as a care giver rendering an opinion  to my family ever again .
