If you ever have the occasion to have to be seen at The Immediate Care Center at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, make sure it isn't by Dr. Cliff Crawford.

What Dr. Crawford lacks in bedside manner he makes up for in rude and insulting behavior. No child is a "crisis" to Dr. Crawford, he's simply there to collect a paycheck. The is a prime example of a man who should have "gotten out of the game" a long time ago, but as hung on well beyond his acceptable "shelf life".

As a former nurse of his, people might say that this is an opinion generated from personal views. I can assure it isn't. On a personal level, Dr. Crawford never knew how I felt about him, but in my own experience as a parent having him treat my own children, is where my views are generated.

He has received numerous complaints, which the managing physician has chosen to ignore, from other parents who came to the center and would refuse to see him if he was on duty. As a nurse, you can see how that might have presented a problem, ethically, for me because ,for-the-most-part, I agreed with them.

Dr. Crawford has lost of friend in "all the right places" which keep him well insulated from having any action taken against him for unprofessional conduct...and it's good that he has such safeguards in place.... otherwise, even CHOA would have had to "deal" with him a LONG time ago.
