sorry , couldn’t figure out how to paste & copy article

besides being against the law, isn’t this against the Hippocratic oath they take?

they should loose medical license, or at the minimum, the right to prescribe IMO
 
Every doctor that I have ever dealt with sucked. They get way too much respect without earning it. A few days ago I saw one on TV being interviewed in a studio, he was wearing a white coat and a sthetescope, looking very important. Sad fact is that most of the public think that he is a genius. I see a fraud in a white coat [puke]
 
I called my Pulmonologist today and asked about getting a script for adding O2 to my CPAP. He asked why? I said I heard it would be a "good idea".
He said, "Oh, that won't help." I then asked "Would it hurt?" he said "No?!" He told me to call back in a few weeks about a sleep study to determine "need"...

Yeah, right. I'm "on it"... [rofl2]

That's how they need to be spoken to.
Keeps them honest.
 
I'm good to go though. I have plenty of fish medicine...

Good doctors are busy practicing medicine, not seeking out TV cameras.

Didn't get into med school now, did you?

And what is your profession?
 
I'm kind of a pepper I guess. I have enough food to feed me and the wife for about 6 months, maybe a month or two more if we are careful. I have enough ammo to last the rest of my life and we keep cash in a safe. We have a well so water isn't an issue and we can make heat and hot water with wood. About the only thing we would have to leave the house for is medicine. We switched to Escripts a while back but if that stopped wed be screwed. So we began hoarding. One of my med I take three times a day, but ten days a month I just take two, so I save ten a month. After doing that for a while I stored up 3 months of med so far. I'll keep doing it until I get six months worth.
My meds are for pain and inflammation so skipping one here or there won't kill me, but going for a few days would suck. Moral of the story is, don't get sick. But if you do save up some med for the next Chinese lockdown.

My wife in an RN/MSN. She deals with these pompous a**h***s on a daily basis. Jill has the patience of a saint. No way in the world would I be able to cope with such bullshit long-term!
 
Its not their fault you're a crusty old boomer with no friends and no family members smart enough to be doctors.
 
I know a general surgeon in Chicago who is also a SWAT LEO who does entries in a stack. I showed him Hey Jackass on Chicago shootings and his SWAT units shoots a few but his surgery department sees many of the survivors.

Cop-haters & MD-haters gotta be tweaking by now... 😅
 
Some are pretty good. One who I got along really well with told me I was the only patient he ever had who knew what the JIRR is.

I'll bet they put him at the back of the stack so he will be able to help if any at the front get whacked.

Coincidence that mine is also RN/MSN. A few times when I needed a specialist and was picking one I asked her about what so an so was like. She was real quick to tell me which ones were the pompous a**h***s and which ones were decent people. Also would include whether the pompous a**h***s and the nice guys were good or bad medically. It's good if you can get "not a pompous a**h***" and "good medically."
 
Nothing says small minded like being prejudice against an entire group of people.

Posts like many of the ones in here are what give gun owners a bad reputation. Really sad to see.
 
You’re acting like this is new or even shocking. Shit has been going on a loooooong time. It’s just coming to more light now. That’s all
 
I went to an awesome foot/ankle doc, then he moved out of state... He fixed my problem at the time with 2 visits.
Went thru 4 more doctors over 2 years, many multiple visits with each when I had another problem.
The four shitty ones, looked at my foot, threw an ace bandage at me, told me to get an orthotic.
Then I found a good doc...
Good doc listened to me, forced me to get an MRI, went over his diagnosis, told me that my walking mechanics were the problem, had a custom brace fabricated, and told me what to do to mitigate/eliminate the problem. Also told me that surgery was out of the question (because long term won't fix it).
2 years later my foot is fine.
So yes there are shitty doctors. In this instance....roughly 67% of them suck.
