This woman is full of bull.
I worked hospital 42 years. She’s not lying. She’s not really exaggerating.
Got my MD in 1974. She is full of bull.
Of the class of 500 when you attained your medical degree, did you graduate at 499th?
Bwahahahahahahahahaha
Actually graduate top of class. But even to bottom is called,DOCTOR.
So did I. I have a MSN and a MBS both with Summa cum laude accolades. I stand at 30 years experience starting in 1980. So, I had a first hand knowledge and skill working with Interns, Residents and Fellowships and of course Attending, I know what I speak of and I know how many patients I saved from their doctors. All ranges of personalities, skills and egos. I deemed Patriot Nurse thesis valid and preternatural as to describing doctors, hospitals, clinics. Major reason I prefer my primary as a nurse practitioner, I have more in common and trust in one. If I have to use an MD or DO, they pass through a thorough personal screening as to their skill, attitude and ego.
Does that mean lotsa cum?
No, she is not… Your “MD” doesn’t trump my “PE.”
“…Personal Experience…”
You graduated over 50 years ago. Your knowledge of just what medical schools are forcing down the throats of students was obsolete before I was born. Most medical schools now are nothing more than indoctrination centers that not only gatekeep from more conservative minded kids but openly sacrifice medical ability on the alter of liberalism. “Back in my day” doesn’t reflect reality. Sit this one out grandpa.
Your comment does not make sense. So I have over 50 years experience.
Your blanket condemnation of everything she said tells me you are the one that’s full of bull. Some, actually most of the information she presented I have heard or read about before from other sources and some I have experienced myself as a patient. I thank my wife for being present as my advocate when I was at the mercy of hospital protocol.
At the ER for a broken finger, triage staffer acks (that’s right, acks) if I’ve been to any counties in Africa recently. “Why would I visit some shithole country?” was apparently NOT the answer she was looking for.
Another time, my primary care Dr. asks if I have guns and if I hunt. I pointed to the poster on the wall about the Shingles vax and he was immediately distracted.
It’s like shooting fish in a barrel it’s so easy sometimes.
What is?
Distracting doctors by asking about any of those “vaccines”.
They get excited thinking of pharma-paid bonuses.
DR asked if I had a gun at home. I answered NO. I didn’t mention that I had more than 50 in my collection, including a Civil War cannon and a WW2 German machine-gun. He asked “singular” – GUN. Had he asked “plural” GUNS I might have had a different answer for him
The guns… “Whether or not I own firearms has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with why I’m in your office today, doctor… Nunyabusiness!…”
Well now, Kevin, riddle me this/these:
#1: Ha-ha, I was an orificer of my gun club when my physician applied for membership and it was my responsibility to administer his initial safety orientation. Now what?
#2: Am I required to admit to paranoia now that I’ve been informed the medical industrial complex really is out to get me, or is that condition just assumed nowadays?
He’s got you now
I only got 2 minutes into the video, but she’s not wrong about the system (of fear and compliance) that is now the overwhelming majority of American medicine.

At a “new patient/intake” exam you’ll get asked about what we call “Social History” which includes do you drink alcohol, smoke tobacco, do MJ or illicit drugs? Sexual orientation and “safe sex” practices. Are you married, have kids? Then they’re ordered to ask you about “guns”. In some medical systems it’s a check box for them (as in the doctor’s notes might be audited for compliance; poor compliance, your billing is discounted to a lower level of compensation). They’re also supposed to ask if you wear a seatbelt, and about fire and CO detectors in your house. Not making this shit up, more’s the pity.

One approach to responding about the guns thing is “MYOB, fuck you.” I actually think this is appropriate, but there’s little upside to starting out hostile. As a patient, I’ve said, “If I had firearms, I’d store them safely and responsibly. And I’d know how to use them properly. But that’s a theoretical discussion because I’m not going to discuss this with you. Nothing personal. And now you can check the box that says you talked to me about it.” Yeah, it’s still kind of a fuck you, but more a fuck this stupid medical system rather than fuck you personally.
Back when I still saw patients, I’d ask the smoking/drinking/drugging questions and then say, “Now I’m supposed to ask “do you own guns”. Personally I think it’s none of my business, so I’ll just say this: If you choose to own firearms, please ensure that you have proper training, and that you store them securely.”
Keep in mind that most doctors in major academic medical systems (the famous teaching hospitals) are leftist or left leaning. In other places full of Indian (or other 3rd world foreigner) doctors, many/most don’t understand normal American culture (and they don’t care to learn because they actually have contempt for you). So no love there either.
The (dot) Indians are the worst. They actually think you should be pouring their tea. They just don’t get it that in America they’re not “upper caste.” They’re just another stranger on the bus…
Ah, I remember her from the early M.D. Creekmore days.
Any medical facility is a liberal communist hive, and 1/2 of my surgeons have been small hats. Look who tried to send us to the camps over covid.
I don’t answer questions unless it’s about my sore foot.
Who do you think is licensed to prescribe prescription drugs?
Who backs the pricription drug makers ?
Doctors and lawyers….
GET TO THE EFFING POINT ALREADY. Too much yapping preamble. Knew what she was going to say beforehand anyway, but I gave it a shot.
It’s common sense to most people. And for those who answer “yeah, I have been feeling a little down lately “ – you’re an idiot. The doctor is not your friend.
Find a different doctor. A non-answer or refusal to answer is an affirmative answer.
Nurse: Do you feel safe at home?
Me: I live alone and am antisocial.
