That's exactly how it should be....
Wish all the doctors had that perception.

Over the years I've had to do things like extra blood work.... for no reason, and all other requirements met. It was just because one particular doctor thought he'd be pro active in case the gcaa wanted this info! Really!?!? I've had to go do a stress ECG test for no reason while again, all other indicators said I passed the requirements. Again another doctor trying to be proactive before being queried by the gcaa. Then another time it was a sleep study for being 1.5 kilos over a magic bmi number even though this is not a requirement for a gcaa medical. Just tired of jumping thru unnecessary hoops. If I qualify, I'm entitled to the medical..... no questions.

This is why I have an issue with some of these doctors.
