    You really need to be concerned if he is a good doctor. I go to him for medical care & for nothing else. It appears some questions unnecessary & very subject to feelings & should be concerned are they receiving the best medical care. Who cares if I feel unique as long as I received the best medical care. He is gastroenterologist. If you want everyone to feel unique it's not going to happen. You should be concerned only with the level of care the doctor provides.
