Mr. Reddy's shameless haughtiness is, frankly, sickening. This is unlikely to be an effect most would seek from a physician.
Once he pauses his incessant prattle long enough for the patient to complete a sentence, rather than answer what are decidedly lucid questions, he seems to instinctively resort to deflective condescension, effectively declaring them irrelevant and absurd provocations, as if his sovereign authority is being challenged. Not only is this entirely unhelpful, it is utterly disrespectful and at least -- by reacting in complete arrogance to innocent questions seemingly perceived as an attack on his personal domain, while simultaneously attacking the domain of the patient, i.e., by prejudging their question's rationale -- moderately hypocritical.
The personal qualities of an effective physician are extraordinarily similar to those of an effective teacher, e.g., communicates well, listens well, is somewhat empathetic, and possesses requisite domain knowledge and understanding.
Mr. Reddy does not appear to present very many such qualities other than relevant knowledge and understanding, though the value of this can be significantly discounted if it is used in an unbeneficial way. Indeed, being unwilling or unable to share such knowledge and understanding with a patient in the appropriate circumstance is certainly selfish, not beneficial, and potentially harmful. Further, it is very difficult for one to listen (to others) well when they are perpetually preoccupied with listening to themselves. Similarly, one-sided communication might be acceptable for someone giving a speech to a camera, but patients are not ignorant inanimate objects (unless they happen to be in this office).
