Actually he expressed an opinion. Being “called out” by someone who was withoput much compassion and entirely self righteous was one of the reasons i stepped away from this site.. You were wrong then and you are wrong now about why i wore my scrubs out and for several weeks when i was attending one of th esickedt ICUs in the country, i did dnot stay with my family so as to not to transmit the disease.

The reality is becasue of comments like this, many physicians are stepping away from practice, and I cannot state that I blame them.

“many physicians are stepping away from practice, and I cannot state that I blame them.”

My doctor retired in her fifties—and she was great.

I met her recommended replacement today—and was pleasantly surprised when he said the magic words:

“I share her view that if it is not broken I will not try to fix it.”

Do no harm is what we want from doctors—if they can meet that standard they are on solid ground.
