Current Events > Doctors are mostly useless.

(+) Yeah! (+)

You go in and pay like $200 for some pretentious wanker to not take your problem seriously.

Cant wait until we have robot doctors.

Start seeing better doctors.

Plus they always want to finger you. I can just get fingered on the street for a fraction of the price.

---

i agree with the TT

---

Doctors are not mostly useless but most of their services are vastly overpriced for the use you get out of them

Dr phil?

I agree a lot of doctors are dangerous now. They are arrogant and have moral agendas and don't listen. They will take your money and waste your time and sell you shit. They don't have the integrity they used to where there are more logical solutions to problems sometimes and if you challenge some of them they will get enraged out of their own paranoia because what they are doing is immoral.

In my experience, patients grossly overestimate their competence in being able to determine what is scientifically and medically sound advice and what is quackery.

theyre burnt out and depressed. they have unappreciative and frequently demanding patients. their only solace is to go home and drink

Lol @ this ignorant take

I have been frontstabbed, and backstabbed too many times by doctors in recent times. They will lie to your face and diagnose you with nonsense behind your back. When it's pretty obvious if you have any sense yourself what is going on. And it's true. Some things really aren't overestimating your own capabilities.

Getting strong Borderline Personality Disorder and psych vibes here

This is what i mean. I'm actually talking about common sense. Like how people work through their issues. DarkRoast is a fraud. He probably is paranoid himself. How people gain security in their lives and everything. People need to be able to work through issues on their own.

Medicine is as much "common sense" as engineering is.

And you shouldn't just decide "I can build a bridge"

Being practical and pragmatic are important. It's just true. I've been in places in my life to know these things. Some doctors today are absolute quacks themselves.

Next thing you know they will be doing some larry nassar shit to you.

Kg has been rambling in multiple topics this morning, I have never noticed him before lol

Larry Nassar was a doctor and a quack. Some of you I'm getting those kind of vibes from. Your moral high ground needs serious work.

this feels like a chris deli joke

Correct. And every nurse I've ever interacted with is just as knowledgeable about my condition and its treatments. They just cant prescribe shit lol.

Going to the doctor is 90% waiting.10% getting prescribed a medicine that only treats the symptom.

In life there are three qualities of the mind:

Intelligence is your innate ability to learn things quickly and put that knowledge to use.

Knowledge is the active acquisition of information and is not imparted without some effort.

Wisdom is the integration of the two and the subsequent willingness to recognize that there are things you don't know.

because the medical profession here burns them out. In Europe you can study medicine just like any other college course right out of high school and you dont need to be a beggar with a doctorate for 20 years before you can start living like a human

People are smarter than you give them credit for really. I can tell the difference when I'm being taken advantage of. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be practical, reasonable and actual common sense. People have a right to protect themselves from bs.

The American health care system is so inhumane.

Tour typical western doctors basically just throw tests and meds at your symptoms and dont offer any sort of constructive feedback or strategies for the underlying causes.

No I'm still here. I'm not a coward like some people. I do have an actual life sometimes that goes beyond gamefaqs yes.

Your typical alternative med doctor has zero knowledge of physiology and wouldn't know an "underlying cause" if it hit them in the face.

---

The only way you get a fair shake by a doctor is if you dont need a doctor.

---

They are seriously paranoid. There is more money spent on security than actual care. For a reason too because they are druggng people unnecessarily sometimes and some of them know it. They are as much at the mercy of their overlords as anything else.

Rofl. As a person of Chinese heritage, the number of times I hear about "wet wind" in Chinese medicine

Reading through this topic you get a pretty good sense for who is using resources correctly and who isn't

SOme of them are genuinally overloaded because of the amount of people not getting the care they need. Some of them are genuinally pill pushers. Some of them still have the sense to realize it. Not all doctors are bad, some of them genuinally understand what these disorders mean. Some of them don't and overdiagnose.

I have, in the past, been seriously worried about the well being of this poster.

---

I'm actually one of the people here who knows what is what. I'm not someone to worry about.

Honestly too. People know how they feel for the most part. I don't need people worrying about me so much either. genuine care is genuine care. I honestly feel fine for the most part. And people without the sense to realize that are the problem.

You go in and pay like $200

no i don't

was hoping for an interesting topic :/

Most of you get really really crazy over very silly stuff. Maybe you should have that checked out. Nothing I said didn't make perfect sense whatsoever.

If your doctor's useless that's a good thing. Means you dont have problems

Go to hospital for back pain, ER. Get pain meds and they twist my legs until they say Sciatica.
Few days later a reccomended specialist calls. Can hardly feel my left foot.
Sent me for an mri and i have a slipped disc.
Says wait till Tuesday for epidural and possibly surgery otherwise maybe it'll be better before then. Balance between walking and resting they say.
I can't walk without a cane and have fallen twice. I'm going to need that surgery why wait?
They jerk you around a lot but they can get the job done when push comes to shove.

Doctors are basically useless. The human body can heal on it's own if you let it. Spending time in a mental ward isn't always healthy. Gamefaqs pretty much is a mental ward of crazy people for the most part but realizing that is half the battle. Unfortunately you can't say that, because the mods are crazy too. I don't need any of you.

Been there before.

Doctors be like "try sleeping and working out then come back if that doesn't help"

If you injure yourself go see a doctor really. Unless you are rambo and good with needles yourself.
