My doctor wants to do a sigmoidoscopy in addition to a colonoscopy. Why not just the colonoscopy?

It's not in addition to, it's instead of. Reason, in addition to cost, is that the majority of polyps are found in the region covered by a sigmoidoscopy. If you have a history of colon cancer in your family, and are over age 40, I'd strongly argue for the colonoscopy.

If a doctor doctors a doctor would the doctor doctoring the doctor doctor the doctor the way he wants?
He would HAVE to follow ALL REGULAR PROCEDURES no matter who the patient is.
If a doctor quits and wants to come back to work does that mean that doctor has to go back to school all over again?
A doctor's degree takes several years to complete, even for the most mundane of subjects. Anybody who can finish one is not likely to forget it, and in addition, doctors are highly sought-after. In short, no, they would not need to redo their degree.

My mother in-law is at stage 4 kidney disease and getting worse Doctor says it's too late to think about getting a new kidney.Doctor wants to do a colonoscopy first b4 dialysis.Why?
The colonoscopy is to determine if there is any source of bleeding in the rectum or intestine. They would be looking for polyps or internal hemorrhoids. I'm not exactly sure what the implications are of having any of those without the physician knowing about it. It makes sense though. Dialysis is filtering the blood and removing the toxins that are building up, a job that the kidneys would normally do. I don't know if that helped any. Ask the doctor or a nurse to explain it better next time you go. Good Luck.
