Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchI saw on the show” My feet are killing me “ they used a laser on a guy with nail fungus. I have this one nail I dropped a dresser on 5 years ago and it was starting to look pretty good but my last 2 bottles of Jublia disappeared ( my cat steals things) and it’s $100 for a tiny bottle. I just bought a new one and I’m hiding it from him. I’m thinking the money I spent on Jublia would have been better spent on laser. My doctor has never mentioned this laser technique. Have you heard of this?

Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchI don't wear shoes in my house, will this help in keeping my feet inhospitable for fungal infections?

Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchI remember one time I had a doctor who contacted the specialist to get my appointment moved up earlier. I wonder if that's something doctors can still do to help.

Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchI think of all the foot Doctors I watch on YouTube you do the nicest job, you seem to always clean the debris around the nail and remove the dead skin buildup and use more than one bit which seems to make all the difference and you do a great job putting on your Shea butter cream. I think the other doctors could take a lesson. Many of them seem to rush and it just looks like a half ass job putting it bluntly. I enjoy your videos!

Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchOh gracious his blood sugar though. I am glad you urged him to see his primary doctor. You really are a kind doctor and I wish more doctors took a page from your book. I use to live in a very small community where it was a sorta open secret that doctors would do the bare minimum to "milk" the insurance of their elderly patients. Same with the local hospital who nearly let my dad die because they wouldn't listen to my mom when she said my dad had been having seizures. Now my dad is to the point where he has 6 months to live and it could have been helped had anyone listened instead of just assuming it was his breathing.
Poor doctors are out there, namely among communities that are poor and desperate or retired and sick. It's not an exaggeration, I lived it. I came to Finland and a lot of the doctors were floored by the treatments I was on. I am so much healthier now that I found doctors who care and aren't so apathetic.
Thank you Dr. Jefferson for being a beacon of hope to your patients and being such a caring professional!

Posted at 13:15h, 18 MarchHave him contact the maker of the expensive medicine. They have programs to provide medicine for free or at reduced cost. Talk to your drug rep for more info.

Posted at 13:15h, 18 Marchhis sugar is high because of one thing..he wont stop shoving crap into his mouth! In order to get medication, you have to call the pharmacy, they dont read minds. Also some doctors wont refill meds without seeing the pt which is responsible doctor!
