    NOTHING! I have NEVER enjoyed seeing any doctors until Dr Pate. He is friendly, jokes around but is a good listener. I have NEVER experienced a doctor that acts like real human being before. As a counselor I tried firstly to put my clients at ease too. They-children and adults-were surprised by this. That's a shame! It seems emotional constipation is a disease that should be treated.
