Do you ever feel patronized by your pediatrician?

My son came home from school covered in red spots like chicken pox. We did not over react inany way. We just made a phone call to make sure it was or wasn't chicken pox. They said the way we described them it sounded definately like it. The next day most of them were scabbed ove and shrunk in size. BUt he had more and wasstill getting them. The doctor had us wait almost an hpur before giving us his precious two minute glance. He barely gave my son a good look over and said, maybe bug bites or a rash. He is fine, send him back toschool. The end. How rude. I would not have wasted my time coming all the way to over there to sit for an hour to have someone pat my hand and say its ok. He has red spots from head to toe. From the tips of his ears to the bottom of his feet. Sporadically spread out with only one or two here and one or two there. Not in a rash like pattern. Tha was last thursday. He is still getting new spots and even has a few in his mouth. The wierd thing is they scab over by the end of the day. It could be an A-typical case because he has had the shot, but the doctor was not concerned. Wht would you do in this situation? Complain? Take him backand have someone else look him over? Blow it off as nothing?
