He did not listen to me. He acted as if there was nothing wrong. He had me take a blood test. My feet are crippled and told me I need to get exercise, which is great, but when I ache and my feet are crippled that's hard to do. He said that I needed to be like him at 81 and in great shape! Well I'm not!
