In “normal” times, the practice of medicine has many challenges, some from within and some from outside the profession. If you let it, much of your daily practice follows specialty guidelines, insurance company criteria, hospital formularies, and other annoyances. None of those entities have any liability when it comes to our patients. For the most part, liability lies with the treating physician.
Each specialty plays a particular role in a patient’s care and specialists often view issues from different angles while wearing their tunnel-vision glasses. For instance, some physicians view elevated cholesterol as an indicator to assess other potential underlying medical issues, while a cardiologist will just write a prescription for a statin drug, just as a cat reflexively chases a mouse.
What changed overnight and across the board, was an anti-science attitude across all specialties to everything related to COVID. A viral infection is not something requiring government management, rather, its encounter is part of a physician’s daily medical practice. The government has seemingly accomplished what medical insurers, medical boards, and hospitals tried, but had not yet succeeded at: complete mind control of physicians. And with that, the last vestige of respect I had for my profession died.
I’m often in attendance at medical meetings where the fine points of immunotherapy and monoclonal antibodies are discussed as part of the treatment for cancer patients. For physicians, it is their version of science in regard to a drug’s indications, mechanisms of action, dosing, management of side effects, and the studies justifying one drug or combination over another, the latter often supported by questionable statistical analysis.
After the science-lite discussion ends, the personal chitchat begins regarding COVID and vaccines, and the point is reached where any remaining rationality becomes akin to that heard among nursery school attendees.

Medical Practice is a Profession. An intricate, entwined group of professionals no different in concept than Construction, Manufacturing, Marketing or Retail. People require Medical Services on occasion for themselves and families. Working people in the past were offered incentives to remain with employers with "Medical Insurance Coverage." The more employees the better the bargain for the employer in purchasing coverage. Groups of smaller employers would often "Bulk Buy Insurance" for lower costs in order to compete. "Fair Market Profits" dictated Employer Selection and Insurance Price/Coverage Competition. All based on Employees/Employers Relationships. Beginning with Mandatory Government Required Medical Coverage, parameters were established by non medical statisticians directing/selecting the most "Cost Effective Course of Treatment". Statisticians created categories of " Symptoms " from which Medical Practice could select "Course of Treatment." The actual result being "One Size Does Not Fit All", combined with " Overcharging those who can afford for those who cannot, for Mediocre Coverage!" In addition to removing Medical Coverage as an "Incentive" to keep good employees for employers.

Marlene, correct, and the illegals are brought in by devildemocommiecrats to collapse the system!!!!!
Money is all they care for
Medical practitioners worship at the altar of Mammon... Money. The days of 'Do no harm' are gone, curing a patient is not a money-making enterprise... keeping them on a treatment plan until they are broke or die is the optimal medical protocol.
And that my friend is it in a nutshell. Very few doctors are working independently these days, the rest are marching to the orders of the hospitals they work for. Medical schools no longer challenge them to be independent critical thinkers, to try to solve, figure out, they all depend on testing, and regardless of what the patient is saying they treat accordingly. Treat.....not cure.
Not treating Covid patients with early symptoms should open eyes, they wait until they need to be hospitalized, and when they used all their expensive equipment and drugs if the patient should die.....the hospital gets an extra $5000.00. What a reward for failing to do the right thing. Sort of leave the infected finger untreated until they have to cut off the entire arm. Healthcare and government don't give a damn about any of us.....we are only dollar signs!
You make a huge mistake painting all physicians with the same brush. Your statement is simply not true.
Medicine in general and with few exceptions has become a Corporate affair... with the majority of the professionals simply pulling the leavers of Corporate Medicine... there are very few in private practice today most are employees bound by their Employer to follow administrative medicine not... legitimate care that takes the best approach to treatment. Big Pharma, Insurance, and Government Medicare/Medicaid control the approved protocols which in many cases are not the best and least expensive.
There are many doctors who have not bought in to Fauci's BS, and have not gone "woke". Those doctors are frustrated by state and federal regulations banning the use of Ivermectin and other effective treatments for covid 19.
Yes. Some physicians are leaving the corrupt medical institutions, hospitals and medical corporations. They are starting their own clinics together avoiding the medical corruption. All you have to do is look for them.
I agree, there are many Doctors who know that COVID protocols and vaccines do more harm than good... However, they are SILENT... making them complicit with the crime and it is a crime to knowingly administer a treatment that kills or causes more harm than good... it is unconscionable to withhold known CURES, not just treatments for COVID... and to threaten those wanting to use them with firing or discharge from the medical facility without any care.
