My doctor, if he has to turn his back to me to type on the computer, will stop, turn around in the middle of it all, and apologize for "having his back to me." In different rooms, he is facing me while on the computer, and we are talking. It's not that big a deal for me because he makes sure that every question I have is answered. He also walks me out to the front desk. I never feel like I'm a number. It's very pleasant.
