RE: Commitment Issues... How to Query?

I've had a few of these too and asked the question that if you won the
lotto today and retired to your private island would the next provider
by only reading your notes be able to continue your workup and
understand what you suspect or are ruling out?

It's important to remind providers to document their medical decision
making and thought process to help continuity of care.
