I'm on my Neurology rotation, and I was hoping on getting a LOR from my current attending because I want to match neuro next year.
The problem is that he is !extremely! passive-aggressive. He does not acknowledge my presence! No good mornings, he just walks into an exam room and expects me to be there. Every day ends with 2 words: "Go home!" If I try to walk next to him, he walks faster!!! When he does interact with me, it's usually attack me and point out fault, whether it exists OR NOT! When he asks a question and I'm right, I'm never right enough. When I ask him a question, he makes it a point to tell me I asked because I am unknowledgable. Lately, he's been pawning me off to other specialties. I spent the whole day today doing outpatient cardiology.
At the end of the day today he told me he is "extremely unsatisfied" with my level of interest for Neurology. Me?? You just made me do cards all day! I can't get off a full sentence without him biting my head off. I can't ask questions without him making me look like an idiot. I'm lucky to spend 2 days a week with him because he's pawning me off. Is this situation at all salvageable? What do I do to show I am interested?
