[QUOTE="bbirder, post: 1814711, member: 14490"] They can brag all they want about medical technology, but in my opinion the health industry has gone to hell. I once had a Dr who knew your whole history without opening your chart (or a computer). He would fix a broken arm, birth a child or stitch up a cut, all in his office. There wasn't a ten minute limit with someone else in the next room waiting. It is strictly a cash flow business. Get the basics then refer you to some specialist that might take two or three months to get an appt. Don't be surprised if the specialist thinks you need to be referred again. Those of us that are up in age spend half our time feeding these doctors. I don't think any of them today know what the Hippocratic Oath is all about. My GP who we need to refer us or admit us to a hospital works 4 days a week and most of the time he spends planning his fishing trip for the weekend in the Gulf. Thats $1500 worth of gas to put that boat in the water. I don't begrudge him his fishing, but I'd like a little medical attention for all those medicare bucks he's bringing in. [/QUOTE]
