Mainstream Medicine
I have noticed a difference in healthcare since the Chinese dropped the coronavirus on us. Much like the mainstream media, big tech, big pharma, big government and Hollywood, there is now a mainstream medicine. The divide seems to be between large hospital systems and self practitioners. And, the care you receive is vastly different between the two.
Self Practitioners
The self practitioners may or may not be affiliated with a hospital or hospitals. They are often referred to as primary care physicians now. Being in business for themselves, the care they provide is critical to their survival. In other words, if Jane leaves the office and starts telling everybody that Dr. Who gave her bad service, then that may have a bad effect on the doctor’s ability to attract future patients. So, it is critical for the doctor to provide good service.
Most self practitioners have compassion for their patients. They are driven by quality of care over money. So, they aren’t quick to order a bunch of tests in a hospital. They research the symptoms and make a diagnosis from their research. This is how medicine should be. A doctor should treat a patient rather than use the patient as a cash cow.
Mainstream
The new mainstream medicine includes the doctors who work at large hospital systems. Most of these doctors are no longer doctors. They are employees of a large organization that is driven by making money. These doctors push things like the coronavirus vaccine and the flu shot with no regard to how it can affect your health. Because, it puts money in the pocket of the system.
These doctors order test upon test because the system makes thousands of dollars on them. I worked at a hospital for ten years and I saw how deceitful the marketing was. The marketing wasn’t about helping patients. It was about attracting people to procedures that make the most money. Somewhere along the way it became about money over care.
Sometimes, there are solutions outside the norm that can have a profound effect on a person’s healthcare. Just take Ivermectin as an example. It is effective against the coronavirus. A self practitioner can try to get you this medication. But, a doctor in mainstream medicine will not try to get you the medication because the health system gets incentive payments for not using Ivermectin. Generally speaking, you will not be offered any alternative solutions in a health system because they make little to no money on them.
Conclusion
Healthcare is a challenge and nobody wants to be sick or injured. But, mainstream medicine has gone a different direction. People will need to decide what is best for them. I subscribe to the Dr. Bryan Ardis show. He has some very interesting views on healthcare similar to this post. I encourage you to listen to his recent interview with Diamond and Silk on Rumble. If you listen, you’ll understand exactly what I’m talking about.
