Table A.3 displays characteristics of patients according to the themes (as indicated in Figure A.1). All of the patients who discussed the theme of “my doctor just picks it up” were women and were concordant with their physicians on the diagnosis of depression. Few of the patients who brought up the “good patient” were rated by their physician as depressed (3 out of 8), and most were women (6 of 8). Among patients who brought up the theme of physicians only focusing on physical illness tended to have more education and to be white; in 4 of 7 cases, the physician rated the patient as depressed. Finally, all of the patients who discussed the notion of being referred when bringing up emotional issues were rated by their physicians as depressed.
