I don't trust doctors at all. I am over 50 years old and I have only trusted THREE doctors in my entire life- I don't trust them.

Apparently he couldn't inform us by phone call or email and save us the trip? Of course he did manage to charge $600 for his lack of service.
“What the hell is in my charting?”
By law you have every right to get the universal portal access to your digital records. Go see... They might have your history mixed up with someone else’s. From what I understand that actually happens a lot more often than it should.
“What the hell is in my charting?” I told the nurse on a Saturday night: ‘I want to examine my chart’, She said: ‘Well I would want to talk to the Dr. first’.
Very well said... That is the absolute fact. they “milk” you along so they can have a reason to get you in their office every month instead of once or twice a year...
Lol, I see you are one of those who they have successfully brainwashed into considering them as infallible unquestioned Gods... The Psychological induced medical cult is a strong force and never objective. So there is nothing more I can share with a firewall like that. Maybe someday you will wake up and realize that you were played.
The facts do not lie...
Total-Scale Analysis of Medical Errors Scientific Literature
Medical errors are a leading cause of patient morbidity and mortality. Recent mortality analysis in the United States ranked medical errors as the third major cause of death, following heart disease and cancer, which were ranked on the first and second place, respectively (1). A recent meta-analysis of 70 studies involving a total of 337,025 patients revealed that the average rate of preventable patient harm was 6%, of which 12% was severe or led to death (2). The same study also revealed that errors related to drugs (25%) and other treatments (24%) were the largest sources of preventable patient harm, and incidents were more likely to occur in advanced specialties (intensive care or surgery) in comparison to general hospitals (2).
Aside from patient harms and suffering, medical errors contribute to adverse mental and emotional effects on patient relatives and involved healthcare providers (3). Moreover, medical errors result in significant economic burden due to additional healthcare costs and lost productivity from missed workdays (4).

Be skeptical, doctors bury their mistakes.
“Apparently he couldn’t inform us by phone call or email and save us the trip? Of course he did manage to charge $600 for his lack of service.’
I would have told him to sue me, Not agreeing to pay it. “I have a counter claim for my expenses and emotional damage because of your misrepresentation and fraudulent practices, and I will be alerting my insurance company.”
It is if your excuse in not going to one is based in not trusting them. Nice try tho......
Why the need for your chill pill? Because I support physicians?
I think it's you who needs to chill.....But thanks for the offer....LOL!
“the groupthink by doctors/scientists is out of control.”
The worst problem... COMMUNICATION. They do not communicate, not with other doctors, not with staff, not with you as the patient or your family.
No, I don't, and nobody I know does. But nice try in putting words in my mouth. Nobody is forcing you to see a doctor or an emergency room, but you do don't you?
Not even your mechanic is infallible in diagnosing the problem with your car, but you trust him and pay him without question.
Just curious, if you have such disdain for the medical community, why didn't you spend the years and monies to become a doctor where you could determine the medical conditions of patients and provide the needed care without fail?
The best healthcare group we’ve dealt with in the last five years was a South African crew manning a cruise ship medical center.
So even you recognize that physicians ARE fallible. So what is your solution and more importantly, who are you going to see with a medical problem if not someone in the medical community.......
It is a fact, the medical industry brainwashes folks like you into believing that they are always competent and can be always trusted without question. And if you ask questions they remind you of this. That you are to hold them above the fallacy of normal humans. They consider themselves gods, they OWN you, and folks like you actually agree and let them own you.
“Nobody is forcing you to see a doctor or an emergency room, but you do don’t you?’
Actually no I don’t, I am 64 and have not been to a doctor since I was about 10 years old. I have not needed to, I toughed it through every illness I ever had and that was very very few.
But...I spent years dealing with doctors and hospitals because of my father and my late wife. Because they believed in doctors and regular check ups, and whatever the doctor prescribed to them. The incompetence and fraud is off the charts from my personal experiences. The only reason they lived as long as they did is because I stayed right on top of the doctors and staff and would not let them kill them. I saved my Dad’s life from incompetent doctors twice, and my wife’s three times...
No one should have to personally become a doctor to get their own family competent medical care... If that is the way you think, then the system is absolutely broken... Read the thread, you are absolutely the odd one out and have no clue about reality.
Anyway, we found them by talking to people we knew had not gotten the Covid shot and who they used s doctors.

I believe this is the best advice one can give for those looking for a general practitioner or specialist for their medical care. A referral from close friends and relatives who have had practical medical experience in the local community is likely the first place to start a search.
I was prescribed lysinopril some years ago. It caused difficulty swallowing. That eventually improved.
Then a couple years ago I was prescribed a light statin dose. That has caused muscle weakness so I am not attempting to control cholesterol with more fiber and exercise. Doctors are supposed to tell folks to try to control cholesterol with diet and exercise but they never do. They are not dieticians and seem to skip to what is the easier recommended procedure for them.
After being off the statin for a few weeks my legs are stronger. Will find out at next med appointment if my solution is working. My family does not have heart attacks or stroke so I am more concerned about turning into a puddle of jello with legs that don’t work.
I am 75.
Doctor.
There are some really bad reactions to vaccines. I know someone who had their child get that vaccine. They are still paralyzed and in a wheelchair. Imagine seeing your 12 year old, probably forever, in a wheelchair.

=================================================================
I'm Vanderbilt Medical Center's/Nashville VA's crash test dummy and future medical exhibit. Hit by a car at eight, 6 month recovery. Survived at least 14 bouts of pneumonia. Lost count of broken bones. Throat cancer in 2018, larynx and most of thyroid removed, throat rebuilt, breathe through hole in neck. Chemotherapy and radiation degraded vertebrae so titanium frame installed from base of skull to mid back, one disk fusion. Left hip replaced during all that just for fun.
One year ago my landlord found me incoherent and babbling while NOT sitting in the Oval Office. They found a cyst on my brain that caused partial paralysis. Drugs seemed to clear that up but the lifetime of wear caught up like a car crash - stamina shot and lots of dizzy spells. Without family or obligations I declared retirement and adjusted to being "the fully mobile man in the land of the decrepit" in this acute care place. Not bad but the food needs help stat (LOL). Tests are ongoing. I refuse to worry.
What no one seems to have mentioned is how the COVID-19 "crisis" totally redefined the medical establishment. I'd always gotten top-level treatment from the Veterans Administration but my trust was betrayed when they DEMANDED all recipients get the vaccines or risk being denied future care. After I got the second dose the reports came in here at Free Republic about myocarditis, blood clots and sudden deaths that weren't being reported elsewhere until several more months passed. Thanks to you folks who posted those reports. I strongly suspect the brain cyst was caused by the vaccines but no sample was taken before it shrank that might have been evidence. Who really wants a new hole in their head?
Now the pandemic's damage to our nation (and world) is still being assessed. Medical professionals were threatened with license removal if they refused to toe the line and peddle a "cure" that appears to be worse than the illness. Even the best of them had to cave in and take the demoralization, forced to live with their compromise between the rock and a hard place. Young people are still keeling over for no known reason. Medical examiners and coroners are told to shut up about finding veins clogged up by weird cystic growths. Despite the increasingly bad news the vaccines are still being peddled and urged on children who've always had a natural immunity to the virus. The proof of perfidy is seeing the profit motive put over actual need.
Pfizer, Moderna and J&J finagled a no-fault deal where they're absolved of all those horrors and side effects yet to be found. Evidence is accumulating that points to the whole thing was a manufactured crisis made to undermine Trump's first administration and cripple voting requirements to enable the Democrats' return to power. It may be the slickest scam in America's history and those who suggest that are labeled crackpots, radicals and "election deniers". Count me in.
The one positive result from this "plandemic" is being able to discern the very worst doctors from the competent and good ones. The quacks are the ones still gleefully pushing you to take more COVID shots.
