How about: Please don't patronize me - I am an adult. Don't talk down to me. One more thing, especially for specialists: Why do you feel that you need to treat me like a dummy, you should be glad I'm asking/telling you this - an informed patient has done 1/2 your leg work for you by reading up. I intend to be an active participant in my own health, thank you.

When some smart-aleck says something obvious, I've been known to say "Wow! I did not know that. I wish I was as smart as you think you are."

Thank you. I know you must be talking from experience in order to be such an expert.
Good Luck!!!

"Excuse me, I am an adult; please address me as one."
It never helps to answer rudeness with rudeness. Then you are as bad as they are.
