Same here. I don't agree with the practice but mostly I tolerate it unless I'm on my PMS. Case in point, calling a young doctor Dr. while he/she calls me by my fist name. </font>
I've been bothered by this for 25 years or more. I decided then, that if the doctor calls me by my first name, I'd call him by his.

It makes me feel pretty good.
