it why med school takes so long, most of it is indoctrination
You can go through a lot of bad ones to find a good one.
I found the ratio was about 5 to 1 bad to good.
A good doctor tells you what, but also why.
I have noticed that doctors who fail in the practice of medicine have a tendency to seek one another’s company and aid in consultation. A doctor who cannot take out your appendix properly will recommend to you a doctor who will be unable to remove your tonsils with success.
Hemingway, Farewell to Arms
That makes good sense to me.
I ask doctors questions all the time, they never have the answers and never research to have the answer next time i see them, except one young white male doctor, he will have input next time we speak. Its a job for most a way of life for a few.
Once had a doctor tell me I had a stomach flu, I couldn't breathe (no joe Floyd)
An hour later another doctor said I had worst case of strep throat she'd seen and gave me pillz
Another time went to like 4 different doctors complaining of ankle pain before one saw the fracture and gave me a cast
Had dentists tell me to get wisdom teeth removed for.... 8 years now. No problems
