Don’t get me started about the medical profession.

Lately I regard them lower than lawyers...and my feelings about lawyers are..

I hear ya! It can be like playing roulette...or worse ...Russian roulette.

There are a lot of good doctors do, but too much of being a doctor today is just throwing drugs at every symptom.

I used to work for a large group of Family Practice residents (docs in training) and I can tell you that after that experience I don’t go to a doctor unless I’m running a high temp, have a deep wound, or a severe migraine.

This bad experience was on top of all the bad medical care I’ve received in my lifetime. I figured that about 90% of all the medical care I’ve received has been by incompetent doctors.

Ironically the best treatment I received was as a child by Army doctors back in the late 1950’s and into the ‘60’s.

Just wait until we have HillaryCare. The instances of “fumbling”, I predict, will increase every year.

When/if you really, really need one.....you might change your opinion. Maybe.

I know too many doctors that I wouldn't let look at my dog. And I know some vet's I'd rather look at me. LOL!!

Even the wisest/smartest doctor can misdiagnose. It happens.

All that being said, I work with one of the smartest doctor's I've ever been around. And he will at times flat out tell you, "I don't know what's wrong with her/him." Now that's a sign of a darn good doctor...IMO.
