His 90% commentary is one he has posted previously to others' questions on sexual dysfunction. I got the impression he was being flippant -- not sincerely helpful to the woman who originally posted at all. (BTW, he's never posted anything even remotely that has helped me.)

After reading this board for over 6 months now, I can honestly say that I would not take the advice of a single physician that posts to it. Your posts, Dr. Hill, tend to be the more intelligible ones, but by and large there is a tremendous amount of questionably flippant commentary and anecdotal clinical practice information coming from physicians who post -- much of which is not even substantiated in research.

The single greatest function this forum performs is the encouragement of women to seek professional care from their own gynecologists. Thank you for that much.

So. Why do I read this board if this is what I think of the responses? Communication. Communication between patients and physicians is like watching a train wreck in the making time and time again. I'm truly trying to understand what makes for thorough communication that leaves the questioner satisfied (and is accurate and supportive information in the process) -- and what is a total mess of communication and why. This is the best board on the internet for watching train wreck after train wreck after train wreck. Should make for one heckuva interesting thesis paper.

I will post no more on this topic -- as Barbara has suggested.
