How do you find a good doctor? In my state the dominant healthcare system really sucks.

Has anyone tried naturopaths? How do you find a doc that looks at labs levels according to their knowledge vs relying on their computers to flag levels that were out of range?

Find a middle-aged, white, male doctor that went to a good school.

Didn't work. He couldn't even advise on basic supplements.

Avoid like the plague doctors who should have bones through their noses and coasters in their lips.

Interesting. I hadn't really noticed the term "integrative doctor" while trying to find an alternative. I will try that. Thanks!

you are welcome. integrative doctors are MDs who know their shit and also look for natural ways to heal first. they aren't perfect but they care.

Trusted friends who have gone to the same doc for years can help. Most docs these days have to sell out to a large corp to cover school debt. No way they can start a practice of their own and the older docs with a small private practice get fat cash offers for their practice from the companies and retire. Corporate docs follow company protocols and are not expected to use their own judgement, hence the reliance on printouts etc.

Good Dr?

As far as finding a trained Dr who knows stuff but may still kill you:

Good reviews mean nothing nowadays, bad reviews mean they likely are bad. Non-white Drs are automatically out. Affirmative action has destroyed any chance of finding a good non white, and it makes it so hard on whites only the very best get through. Don’t say Asian Drs, they are extremely racist, you’re a cash cow to them. Women are shit at problem solving, Drs solve problems, no women. Older is usually better.

I’ve had decent luck using that protocol, good luck bro.
