Got a health problem? Here’s a pill. Have side effects from that pill? Hey, we’ve got a pill for that, too. Get to the root cause of what caused the problems in the first place and recommend some healthy lifestyle changes? Sorry, don’t have any time for that.
BINGO! MD stands for Doctor of MEDICINE. Not doctor for avoiding health problems.
You’ve nailed my problem with the medical establishment that hands out meds like they’re cure-all and have no repercussions of their own.
It’s too hard to get people to eat right and exercise. I get it, though. It takes discipline. Sometimes I’m better at disciplining myself than other times.
