I've had great military doctors and not-so-great civilian doctors, and vice versa. Overally, especially lately, I've been more than satisfied with the care I get from military doctors.Response by CW5 Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 6 at 2014 7:06 PM2014-12-06T19:06:23-05:002014-12-06T19:06:23-05:00SGT Kyle Taylor358412<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>NO!!Response by SGT Kyle Taylor made Dec 6 at 2014 9:37 PM2014-12-06T21:37:40-05:002014-12-06T21:37:40-05:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member358479<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Just as a side note, impetigo and ringworm can look very similar. Also, the DSM just had a revision so the definitions for some psychiatric diseases are changing making their dx a touch difficult to those with the old standards. The opinions of the provider can sometimes also affect their diagnosis of certain conditions (especially if their criteria is "fuzzy").Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 6 at 2014 10:21 PM2014-12-06T22:21:56-05:002014-12-06T22:21:56-05:002014-12-06T18:58:42-05:00
