All of this has been lost, distorted, or destroyed.
Now, there is the presumption that when a patient does poorly, it is automatically the doctor's fault. Government warns patients not to trust their doctors by enforcing clinical guidelines, algorithms, and crisis standards of care to "protect" the patient from the doctor.
No worries. They will soon have 2 year DEI medical degrees to quickly fill the void.
Socialized medicine in the United States will have the same shortages of doctors in other countries with socialized medicine such as England and Canada.
A citizenry and tribalism cannot co-exist nor endure.
"Don't worry Scro'!"
I could’ve sued every doctor my wife and I have seen (for good cause) but chose not to for several reasons. Doctors are more interested in their licences and litigation mitigation than caring for the patient. As a result, they harm patients. They’re too scared to doctor anymore. They do cookbook diagnosis and treatments erring on the conservative side to the detriment of the patient. They don’t listen to the patient and history. Our medical industry is in a free fall and all the while technological advances are being made but mostly for naught.
Let’s see: I have a Filipino-American Cardiologist, who replaced my retired Cuban-American Cardiologist. I have a Peruvian-American Urologists of Italian heritage. I have two Oncologists, one is Scottish-American and the other is Cuban/Mexican-American.
Well my Primary care doctor is from Ohio. She replaced the guy from East Africa.
What I think is, we have plenty of doctors, the problem is the United States does not raise doctors anymore. We have to import them
You change the work environment; it changes individuals’ choice of career to enter. It also changes existing physician retirement choices. The government geniuses believed they could make substantial changes in the healthcare system and the physician supply would remain constant. Unfortunately, there is never any accountability for stupid mistakes not even in the recorded history since the government geniuses control the historical record.

Hang on ... were they trained overseas, or did these doctors obtain their degrees and internships here in the USA?
Maybe now they’ll learn that going woke was a big mistake!
I have the highest regard for healthcare workers. However candy ass "journalists" and pensters and the "news" media rate at the bottom of my charts. Even lower than car salesmen.
Self-inflicted by the government and medical community.
We’ve been seeing it here in NH.
I don’t think it’s entirely morale. It’s mainly that the medical education system is managed so that there will be a shortage.
see the problem with the goverment being involved is people need to be more discerning about what the dr’s are pushing.
as an aside: i worked doing direct patient care in hospitals in the 70’s and early 80’s, them moved into health insurance side in the 90’s.
up until the time of the jug eared magic negro and his wonderkind health care for all!! we still had faith in dr’s
as for me i do research on everything the dr’s tell me i need done, or knowing my past medical history i can request studys done.
you are right
my primary care dr is canadian-indian, my cardiologist is indian. we do have to import them
Maybe the “Bell Curve” has something to do with it. The Bell Curve book is a study about IQ by race.
I’m in Salem, OR, with Kaiser Permanente. Tried several times int he last month. Can’t get a doctor appt with any doctor in my city. Zip, none.
Remember a decade or two ago, when Hillary said we had too many doctors?
