In the the last post, I wrote about the exorbitant cost of US healthcare. If we pay 4 times as much for healthcare, our care should be much better—right? But that is the craziest thing. We pay more for care that is much worse. The value of a product takes into consideration cost and quality. Our healthcare system is high cost and low quality which is the very definition of low value.
The ob-gyn I had quit to become a functional medicine doc. She is my doc now. She is much happier now she remarked. I understand that it’s much riskier to be an ob doc now with our litigation society and treatment tyranny from the hospitals. Medical boards. The pediatric sector is off the rails as well.
Like the anesthesiologists, the OB’s are taught bunch of outdated unproven lies, as their “guidelines” to practice. These so-called “professional guidelines”push for costly procedures and surgeries which are deadly, and most of the time unnecessary. Patients are the primary victims and their doctors are also the victims of the “system”. What a sad and dangerous way to make a living!
Another sign of the total destruction of our profession in America. Very sad!

Our system is centered around the needs of hospitals-not patients
