        <description><![CDATA[My personal experience is the left hand does not know what the right hands is doing! Every time I went to emergency room first thing off the bat Cat Scan, or just check the heart only! This would not be the problem if they would just pull up records of all your visits! It seems they are only concerned in protecting their own bottoms and runs test that protect them and not want the customer needs! Another thing every doctor dealing with you should be in the loop or informed when you get tests or and what the main doctor wants done next. They should all communicate it would save so much pain and money. It could be done with a app and iPhone so easy. Maybe even save some lives. But there again it would mean Doctors would have to be involved with the patient and treat the whole person! We need to really step up the quality of care here in the USA!Thank God I had one Doctor that cared or I would be dead today. The others keep missing what was wrong!]]></description>
