I did not have good experience during my appointment with this doctor. I know she needs to know about my life, and family background to understand my action and way of thinking and how the culture I born in had influence on me, but I have to say it was my first time to see someone so biased about international people and their culture... During my session I always felt that she tried to force her ideas about how uncivilized and old-fashion my birth country is into the conversation, and I had to correct her many times over and over fruitlessly and wasting my consulting time (which she really cared about not passing it even for a minute) on talking about unrelated matters... She might be a great doctor, but still not good enough to interact with people from different background.
