Abstract
After a recent experience of being a patient, there is no doubt in my mind that 'sick doctors' engender anxiety in their health-care professionals. Despite researching, lecturing and writing on the health care of doctors, I found it hard to practice what I preach. Maybe I was a difficult patient, or tried too hard to be compliant, or perhaps my expectations of my caregivers were unrealistic.
