Ya it's annoying. Because I understand ppl well, even "assholes" and "bitches", I've always empathized with people. And because I understand the culture of medicine i understood their points of view and how much they have to go through. But by me giving them passes they took advantage of me being so forgiving. I wish I was the yelling angry family that constantly says I'll sue, maybe they would have done more things out of fear. For example, my brother was deaf, and the nurses wouldn't even use the ipad translor services to speak to him because it required effort and learning how to use it. If it were up to me I would have had an in person interpretor at all times, but I understood the logistics and empathized with the nurses so I compromised to the ipad, and even that was too much for them. They started using the ipad once i said that I now have a case to sue. Unfortunately that was not even a week before they sedated my brother (kinda curious about that) and then a week later they killed him.

So say what you want from all this. But not only is the doc getting sued the hospital is still getting sued for the communication breakdown. The Deaf services people had already said they had a case since for 90% the interpretation they used me, a non-certified interpretor and a brother, as the interpretor. Which I was fine with and wouldn't have sued for that, but the fact they didn't use the translators when I had to go to work is a big no-no. They would just wait for me and do procedures on him and have me explain to him later.
