7 Signs of a Bad Doctor--Useful if you're looking for a doc

One thing that I don't like about the doctors here in Hong Kong is that they do not do referal when the patient condition is out there expertise. In the US, for example, it is common to refer to specialist. Like once I needed a root canal treatment and they refered me to a specialist. Then I would go back to the original dentist for the filling.

Once I went to a dentist here in HK because I wanted to change a crown, and the dentist just scared the hell out of me saying that by removing the old crown, the root of the tooth may broke, and that I may end needing an implant that will cost like 20K or something like that. My thought is, if she is not confident removing the crown, why didn't she refer me to someone that know how to do that?
