Why are doctors so useless?

[MusicTokuXX]

Doctors are useless!! They are so useless!! Especially if you have bad insurance!

I hate having bad health insurance. I can’t get surgery without multiple office visits!

Insurance makes people suffer! And doctors don’t care so they’re useless

And by the way Hawaii’s medical sucks!!

I can't EVEN FIND GOOD DOCTORS!!

It's true that they don't care for their patients like they did in the olden days.
Now they cannot take more than 15 minutes for the visit. That's not enough time.
Most of them just tell their patients that their illness is all in their head and they are imagining it. It's a real thing that they say to patients when they don't know what's wrong with them. They tried to tell me that but my friend was with me during my visit and told the doctor how sick I really was! Then he ran some tests. He never found anything but eventually I received a diagnosis but it took going to see a lot of specialist before I was diagnosed.

I get about Maybe five minutes if I’m lucky the health system is terribly broken

Yes, for-profit Healthcare is a joke, and the doctors who do not care are less likely to burn out since their own mental health care is also a joke.

There are still bad and good doctors everywhere, but the way the USA system works especially doesn't encourage good practices...

We pay 1.5% of our gross earnings and health care is basically covered by that. For some things you can be on a long waiting list but that is manageable.

Like all professions there are some better than others. Essentially you have to find a good one but none have a magic wand and your expectations may be two high.

My own doctor is pretty good but there are areas I think he is pig-headed. I needed B12 shots but he wanted to mis-diagnose me as consuming too much alcohol. You can get these perception problems of a hammer thinking everything is a nail.

@Ravid
It's hard to keep going doctor shopping when you are very sick!!

[RavVid]

@sage2021 That's true

The HMO type of insurance is much less expensive but it creates a system where the insurance company acts as a gatekeeper and it actively tries to prevent you from getting treatment. The doctor is not useless but is working for the insurance company and not you.

Yes, sorry, we do not work for free here in the US.

You become a doctor for money instead of helping people? The U. S is so corrupt financially. Like no wonder people are dying so much
