Sadly, not a surprise.

They think they have to do something, but it is not always helpful, sometimes it can even hurt, more than help. That is why people need to pay very careful attention, ask the doctors and pay close attention to how they are during the treatment and go back, if you feel and notice something not quite right.

Studies have shown, that customers/patients expect to be given “something” (most likely a script), not to make their health improve but more so to feel like they got their “money’s worth”.

Provided with a diagnosis and “get some rest, take plenty of fluids, and Tylenol if you have a fever” is not cutting it for the masses.

Ever notice how your doctor prescribes a “z-pack” during certain times of the year, no matter what the symptoms?

"They think they have to do something"

you never saw a family member screaming at the doctor to DO SOMETHING for their 86 yro mother who isn't eating like she used to..

lets all be honest.....we go to the doctor and we expect them to DO SOMETHING like write a prescription......

lets not put all the blame on the docs...
