RE: How much $$ is your doctor getting from the drug & device companies?
Hmmm, I wonder how much those payments
sway what your doctor recommends?
That is absolutely the most important question every person needs to ask at every juncture of their health journey that involves following a doctor's advice.
Thanks for gathering together all this information on such a critical topic, Gary.
Over a decade ago I heard someone say that doctors would mainly be used to diagnose health challenges in a few short decades.
It's already happening. As the money relationship between doctors and drug companies becomes accepted mainstream knowledge, it will only speed up. Upvoted, resteemed and will FB/tweet.
Good to see your comment, @angelacs
I'm a bit of a collector of statements about the medical profession. One immediately comes to mind, the gist of which is -- whatever you do, dont go to a doctor/hospital.
And that statement was made by an American doctor! Dr. Carolyn Dean.
She is one of several who point out that conventionally trained doctors have 3 main tools in their toolkit: BURN, CUT, POISON.
Amazing... even more so coming from a doctor. Bless her for her outspokenness!
That's why I respect Dr. Deepak Chopra so much. Back when it was very frowned upon to do so, he led the way in combining western conventional medicine with eastern traditional ayurvedic medicine.
I can't wait for that blending of the best of all medicine, conventional, traditional and otherwise to become mainstream worldwide. The first step, as is usually the case, is getting big money out of running the show.
