nowadays, it seems to be unaffordable to see a doctor. some doctors are irresponsible for patients, finishing diagnosis in a couple of minutes, but very careful in giving inscriptions for expensive medicine. consequently, going to hospital has become a nightmare for many people, hospital and doctors have a stained image currently what about your opinion

I only pay $25 to see the doctor but what KILLS me is how much is cost to take your PET to the vet. costed me freaking $54 on monday at the vet for my dog. but i agree doctors are becoming more and more unaffordable but the price of everything is going up. It really sucks. there are things my parents have put off because they don't have the money and its just like I thought doctors were suppose to help people but there are so many now a days that just don't care and they only care about the money.

Well , I can tell you a few hhorror stories. My husband went in for an operation for his bladder and just before the operation he had to sign a paper to agree with the operation and they wanted him to sign a paper saying he agreed to have his bladder out!! Luckily he saw this and refused to sign!! The doctors treat you as a patient and not a human being. He had radiotherapy for cancer and they did not tell him that it could burn him .Well he had second and third degree burns.. and the burns were inside too. When I asked why they did not tell us, they only replied tht it happens to one in a thousand. Well I have spoken to 4 people who have had radio and they were all burned. The focus is not n healing , it is on just prescribing more pills and giving more operations. They do not know how to get to the cause of the disease in the first place. The disease begins long before it becomes physical.. Why are we not learning how to take care of ourselves with natural methods, natural food and natural working hours and less Stress, the number cause of disease. Flamenca Flamenca
