Hospital Nurse Question:

If it was just a once-off occasion I would probably let it slide as he could be stressed or worried about something I’m unaware of. But if he or she was constantly being rude to me – especially in front of my patients – I would definitely bring it to the attention of my supervisor.

If the doctor was unhappy with me in any way, I would want to find out so I could take action to rectify the situation. I would also ask the doctor if there was something in my care of the patient that they felt needed discussion.
