That is so tragic for you and for everyone, nurses, patients, staff, etc. I donโ€™t know if the circumstances you mention affect doctors too?, but probably the doctors, too, have to toe the lines that the hospital management defines. My solution as a healthcare consumer is I go to holistic doctors who already question mainstream medicine. ๐Ÿ˜˜

I do think it affects the doctors but they seem to either ignore it or find a way around. It is awful really, especially for the patient. I def go the holistic route, or to the doct in Colombia!

Have you found good holistic doctors? I had some wonderful ones in last years in different locations.

We do go to his office to have vitamin infusions which are relaxing and hopefully beneficial. Iโ€™m such a skeptic, questioning everything and every doctor ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜…
