The Bully in a White Coat

You’ve met him, too, I’m pretty sure of it. You must have seen a doctor in your life, so you know that feeling - you, the poor ignorant, will have to keep your mouth shut and don’t you dare contradict the man. Or woman, doesn’t matter.
This video I’m sharing with you is not just funny… it’s a study in manipulation, the manipulation you’ll have to deal with if you’ll have to see a doctor…

I try to stay away from the doctors as much as I can not because I believe them all to be a bunch of crooks… many are probably decent people, but they work for the system and they have to play by the rules.
In my country, people try to go to private clinics if they can afford it, as state-run hospitals sometimes lack vital equipment and the conditions are …poor. Yet, the minute you walk into a private clinic you know they’re going to push unnecessary expensive tests on you and prescribe expensive pills. Even if they’re unable to give you a diagnostic…
That’s how it works…
Do watch the above video, chances are at some point in your life you will be told you have high cholesterol. If it’s the first time hearing this, chances are you won’t even know normal cholesterol levels have been lowered so more people can be put on pills.
By the way, you might want to check this list of best-selling drugs to see if you or yours have been recently prescribed any of them…
Fun fact: When my kids were small and we went to see their doctor (a very nice lady otherwise) the waiting room was always full of mothers and wailing babies. Yet, everybody had to wait patiently whenever a guy in a suit would barge straight into the doctor’s office. Took me a while to realize those were representatives from drug companies…. no wonder the doctor always prescribed us the newest most expensive drugs on the market.
