That would kinda bother me.
otoh, the robot may have had better bedside manner than some human ones.
still doesnt bother me as much as the doctor terminator models that tell you you’re going to die, and then the auto-syringe thing starts coming towards you...
At least it wasn’t one of those fortune telling machines at the county fair that you have to put a quarter in.
Wow....the Dr. Is a complete ass and coward...
You tell a man he is dying face to face, not by video....
Misleading. It was a monitor. It’s called telemedicine. I’ve been to several doctors (checkups) where you have a nurse with you and you talk to a doctor in another location.
There are two sides to every story:
The hospital disputed the use of the word “robot” to describe the tele-video technology. Gaskill-Hames said in her statement that the technology allows a small hospital to “have additional specialists” assist with patient care around the clock.
Just wait till Bernie’s medicare-for-all plan kicks in. You’ll be lucky to get an email.
2 years ago in Death Valley Scotty’s Castle got FLOODED, owing to torrential rains.
Patient learns he is dying from robot’s video screen.
Patient says that is awful because he has not yet paid his hospital hill.
Robot gives dying man three more months to live.
My Cardiologist is about 75. I’ve known him for 30 years. Saw him recently near the end of the day. He spent about 5 minutes with me, asked me how I was. I said “fine.” He said; “Thank God, It’s been a hell of a day,” and left the room. (They had reviewed the lab work and refilled prescriptions.)
At least it spoke english.
Lazy prick. That’s inexcusable unless he’s at ice station zebra or something.
I knew it was Kaiser before I even read.
