I remember when we were in college, someone noticed that all the pre-med students were not the best and the brightest, but the ones most able to memorize. It’s nice that they can remember the parts of the body. I’d really like it if they could THINK about the parts of the body.
Whenever I need a specialist, I go to the best hospital around, find the chief of the specialty and apply to be their patient. Has worked brilliantly so far. But other than those guys, I wouldn’t trust a random doctor on the street. Especially the younger ones with possibly DEI education. I choose older doctors by their years in the field and hope I go before they go.
But primary care doctors are getting harder and harder to find. We just had to change ours and were complaining about it to some of the specialty doctors we visited. Who then went on rants of their own about THEIR problems losing THEIR doctors. Their only consolation was that they could prescribe for themselves when desperate.
Beat me to it.
