Is this a new and/or normal thing? Do doctors typically put personality descriptions in patient records?
TL: DR I have been referred to new doctors this year to treat a medical condition. Two of them (both surgeons, don’t know if that’s significant) wrote “xx-year-old pleasant woman” in my medical records.
Next thought: how would it affect my care if a doctor wrote something negative about my personality in my patient record? Next next thought: would a doctor write “pleasant man”?
