My Sister Is Going To See Her Doctor Next Week As She Has Anger Management Issues & Hits Her Boyfriend?

Should she take anyone with her when she goes?

What Do You Prefer, An Arrogant, Mister-know-it-all Doctor, Or A Kind, Gentle, Positive Attitude Doctor??

What do you prefer, a doctor that is distinguished because of its positive attitude and treatment towards patient or a doctor that has a lot of knowledge (that you are sure that he is going to find the diagnosis) but doesn’t know how to treat their patient??
The option good, kind doctor, that has a lot of knowledge is not an option. I’m trying to see what is more important, how the doctor treats the patient or how much knowlegde does the doctor have (even thou his social skills are poor).
“Both’ or “neither” answers are an option. Thanks!

What Kind Of Doctor Treats Anger Management For Children 9 Yrs Of Age?

I have a 9 yr old son that seems to be having some self-control issues (huffing/puffing), anger management, etc., at school/ home. If things do not go his way, he back talks whoever & whatever may be in the same room at that time. He makes wonderful grades (honor roll all this year)! He just can’t seem to grasp that he is NOT boss & I don’t know where to turn to at this point, to get the proper help for him.
He is not the only child, however, his sister is 20 yrs old, who is married w/ a baby, who does not live in our home. But you would think he was the only child. There are no children for him to play with in our neighborhood & he is sooo dependent on me & his dad to entertain him. That is not possible, due to his dad working long hours & me being disabled. He doesn’t pick up after himself like he should, & he can really make a mess w/ his stuff!!!
He had open heart surgery when he was 3 yrs old & I think we have literally spoiled our son rotten not realizing the dangers ahead.
