Blunt doctor gets in trouble
BY SARAH AVERY - Staff Writer

RALEIGH -- Dr. Earl Sunderhaus, an Asheville eye doctor, has what might charitably be described as a brusque bedside manner.

That much is not in dispute.

But the N.C. Medical Board may decide Sunderhaus overstepped the bounds of decency when he recently told a patient she was ( Read more... )

lol when keeping it real goes wrong. there's no excuse for this type of bullying. he needs to get slapped down for that. though maybe he just has no edit function?

blaming someone for being unemployed, on medicaid and getting pregnant is really shitty. if there was real concern on her losing pregnancy weight or it being particularly rough physically on her by having two pregnancies so close together--then work with her on that.

or idk, get the nurse practitioner do it. lol

Obviously, food stamps and Welfare allow her to pay for all the nutritious foods necessary for a healthy diet.

Wait a second...

she can afford the corn syrup, processed soy and wheat containing products that make most americans fat, yes. which is also a result of the government working to make it cheap via welfare to farmers.

The saddest thing about this is that it could potentially deter larger folk from seeking out even more medical care. There was no excuse for this shit at an eye doctor. NONE.

And why am I not surprised this is in North Carolina? Keep this up fellow Carolinians, and people will be uttering our state name in disgust like they do with Florida and Texas.

(As an aside, I just started watching House last night after the race wank from a few days ago)

There was race wank related to House? Please discuss.

I accidentally set off a powder keg in a fellow House fan's journal when she drew a racist cartoon. Shit spiralled out of control for almost a week until she apologized (for real) yesterday.

I hope you have a warm cup of cocoa and a comfortable chair for this.

Oh, she apologized for real?

I was reading about that yesterday, and more than anything, I was furious with her so-called "friends" .

He and I would be outside doing the man dance. I mean, even if the sentiment is true, the delivery of such SUCKS ASS. Plus, some of that shit? It ain't even his place to speak on it. If he really wanted to help, he'd get her in contact with services that would a) help her find a job and b) get her access to education and birth control so she'd make wiser choices. But since he didn't, fuck him and the dick he rode in on.
