I'm a Ped RN and afraid of the adult healthcare system. I'm at the age of needing care, and am shocked at how differently adult drs treat their patients including writing you off at a certain age. It's called age appropriate care, which means at a certain age, I guess they don't really care.

I have a friend who actually gave birth on ther lawn outside the ER doors. Afterwards, she was admitted and the baby was taken to the nursery. When the bill came, it included charges for the labor and delivery rooms. Her husband took it to billing to protest, demanding, "What is this, greens fees?" Those charges were dropped.

I was telling a friend about all the doctors I've seen over the last 3 years and how they've done absolutely nothing, there's no accountability whatsoever. She put it best, it's criminal!

It's utterly incomprehensible that people who are making life & death decisions are being forced into a model that makes them so sleep deprived that they can't tell left from right.

As someone with multiple chronic illnesses, saying "i don't know" actually increases my faith in their competence, because I and many others have had so much harm done through doctors (even fake) overconfidence. If I know you're humble enough to admit you don't know, i can tell you're more likely to actually read up on the symptoms, , diagnostic criteria, treatments etc and are more likely to actually listen to me.

Our medical system is so disturbing. There is no oversight for corruption or inadequate physicians. Patients are left to investigate their doctor’s backgrounds and hope he can be trusted. They are not Gods! Patients need to be diligent and get involved in their care.

The cruelest lie is chemotherapy where, except for a small number of specialized cancers, there is virtually no increase in life expectancy with these horrible treatments worse than torture.

Back in the old days you got a physical every time you went to the doctor. Doctors have found ear infections, tonsillitis, bronchitis and twice pneumonia that i didn't even know I had. I just felt bad for way too long and reached out for help. A relative of mine went in for an annual check up and ended up being rushed to the hospital. Turned out he was having a heart attack at that moment. His doc had heard his heart dozens of times and this was not right.

But now it's rare to get even a basic physical. You usually go in and talk.

Doctors, I promise you, you're missing important things by skipping this vital step. You've been well trained to catch things that average people don't even recognize as symptoms. Behave like it.

And when they don't know what's wrong with you, some of them recur to that old nugget: "It's all in your head". That is one of the worst forms of gaslighting there is.

My surgeon lied on my chart. I logged into the patient website after surgery and he dictated that he went over my surgery and listed the risks he supposedly told me about in detail. He told me NOTHING. I didn’t even know I was going to be under general anesthesia. I knew nothing about my surgery and he didn’t volunteer any information.

[fortheone]

Every time I read my notes in my chart from my doctor or hospital visit, they are lying about something. It’s crazy!

[janetroberts]

I’ve been an RN for over 40 years and can attest to this stuff. Unfortunately the profit drive in US healthcare is making it all worse.

[lolz-fc]

A few years back when I actually went into the patient portal for my GP for the first time, I was shocked. The notes from each visit were super long and all lies. None of what was said was done was actually done.

I had a Resident tell me that her medical training taught her to be able to function as a sociopath.

I had a dentist who told me he only did very basic routine procedures. He drew the line at like root canals. He basically was trying to avoid anything that would cause the patients too much pain. He knew that the suicide rate for dentists was abnormally high and he wanted to avoid the misery typically associated with the occupation. He was still pretty young—under 40–and was in great shape, went skydiving, skiing, and took at least 1 or 2 vacations each quarter. He had a girlfriend but wasn’t married, no kids. His golden years would probably look very different from his peers but that might be a good thing. He was always very happy and very low stress. I’d like to see more professionals living like this in our society.

When I had my c-section, nurses would walk into my room, set something down and charge my insurance without ever asking me if I needed that item. Don't let hospitals take advantage of you and be your own advocate.

I love a honest answer from a doctor, we had a bit of a medical mystery with my oldest son. The doctor was open about not being able to give us answers. He sent us to a few specialists while still looking for answers on his own. Hin and the specialists worked together to find us answers. We finally got a Diagnosis. I have alot of respect for that doctor and now drive a hour and half to see him because I refuse to lose such a great doctor if we don't Absolutely have to

[julietcunningham]

My late husband and I had a GP who never hesitated to say, "I don't know". His next words were usually, "But I'm referring you to someone who does". He also never minded if we did our own research. Once my husband was worried about an upcoming surgery, and begged me to look into alternatives. I discovered some very interesting information that actually pointed to a less invasive treatment that had a better success rate. My brother-in-law had the surgery and got worse. My husband, with his GP's agreement, had the alternative treatment, weathered recurrences of the condition, and cost Medicare a heck of a lot less.

Number 3 is soooo spot on though. I work for the billing dept for several hospitals. It’s crazy how easy I personally can mess up costs. But it’s sad because 90% of doctors make up the codes and add extra things and we wonder why money is such a big deterrent from getting medical help

[dimitrijejovanovic]

This is why I will never set foot in The United States as a doctor. Extreme taxes, soul-draining work hours, forbidden from asking for help, the constant fear of being sued for absurd stuff... Nah, American healthcare is too messed up.
