Everyone has a useless Patient Portal at every physician’s site now that no one checks into. The cost of running these Obama ideas is millions, which is added to the cost of health care, again proving he knows absolutely nothing about how business works. What an ignorant bunch of voters we have in this country, who thought a community organizer/Big Government parasite would be able to bring about Utopia for the masses!
Yes...the patient portals I have refused to join...
When you access those portals, your test aren’t there, they push junk like a dietitian’s services. Saw one of those yesterday, she actually told me I was NOT eating enough grains/carbs. Which I know I eat to much of wrong type of carb to keep weight and cholesterol down, as it is a easy digest food where high fiber fruits are not easy to digest.
Pushing that old food pyramid that makes you gain weight.
I prefer the Paleo diet.
Only thing I can give her high marks for is she knew what Gastroparesis was and that digestion is an issue. But the recommendation of eating more smaller meals sucks, doesn’t work, I’ve had this crap 4 yrs so I already know what can and can’t be eaten and how often to eat which is 2 times a day with 1 very small snack, since it takes me 4 hrs to digest what I eat, and if you keep the gut full you cause PAIN. She suggested a sub dairy product that is Soy based. DUH...soy is NOT allowed for Hypothyroid patients.
Her salary is probably decent, since this is a Hematologist Dr, they deal with blood issues, diabetes and cancer. So she probably earns it. Nothing to deal with the crazy blood cells in the bone marrow, which got me sent there. At least it’s not Leukemia, but they sure don’t know what it is yet.
