This is so real. My family doc has called me on a Sunday afternoon. He has driven (unasked) to my house to bring me a wax soak he was loaning me for an injured hand. He has been heartbroken when a patient died, and he hugged me when I had a terrible thing happen in my life. The family medicine doctor is part of his or her patients' families. He or she can see them from birth to adulthood. And these docs work their asses off for their patients. Fortunately, my doc has recently acquired a Jonathan, and she's fantastic!

He earned it. I dragged my heels on picking a new GP, but I like the PA-C I finally saw last week. I think she and I will get along well.

We had a Christmas family breakdown. No details but strep A is woooooshing no adult is given a standered dose so all 30 patients needed prescriptions calculated on the 23 the day husband had set for me to go to a shop. Instead I tried to hurry every one down to hang decorations because he was super tiered I wanted him in bed not looking miserable Instead my hurry up caused a whole family break his day he should have had less because less scripts instead he had to prescribe a medication he doesn’t know if it’s really helpful. Son doing exams daughter is 17 and wow. Bonus overtime pay he gets to keep 8p per hour due to taxes. Cafeteria vouchers sound much more worth his 8p an hour. He was given a bacon roll. But family therapy wouldn’t have gone a miss. We were beyond broken getting a call at 5.30 3o minutes b4 it’s someone else’s problem meanwhile he had a whole care home to medicate. I want to say it’s all my fault but we were not waving but drowning. Clapp if you care for family medicine but still say they aren’t doing anything. The drs working out of hours must have been shafted as well I called I’ll Boxing Day partial obstruction drs rule out a full obstruction temp bowel sounds etc then they make me comfortable and allow me to stay home if I feel I’m ok with it called in at 2 am on 26 I got assessed and medicine at 1.am on the 27 so them doing all the extra scripts would have stretched them. Family med in the Uk can be hellish. He felt insulted by the clapping for carers as in reality people call dr rich and lazy even without the extra ton children he would have had plenty to keep him there.

Those things are much easier to scale *up* than scale down. Slap a 40% tax on Bezos and his cash alone could probably fund the entire health care system. (and let's be clear, the "homogenous European country" fantasy hasn't been real for many decades now) EDIT: and just to be clear: I am not chewing you out because I think you're a racist or any such bs, I'm chewing you out because the way Americans defend their shitty health care, shitty public schools, shitty public transport etc with "well it can't be helped, we MUST be shitty because we're BIG" is the same kind of bad argument you'll hear from an abused spouse.

You don't need a medical degree for it, do you? And having a second set of eyes and ears would cut down on mistakes. Prevent overwork, increase accuracy and detail in records, open up a lot of new jobs, get people interested in the medical field and potentially increase the number of future doctors and nurses in the process?

From my decade in child welfare law this hits home, even though this video is medicine. The file up and down prep before and after each day’s court list was never ending and exhausting, usually about 40 kids a day, and I called them my kids-an overall caseload of around 300 in a courtroom of medically needy and special needs kids from 0-21, me trying to learn all about their medical conditions to make solid recommendations to the court because these were the kids whose families didn’t stick around to stay involved in their lives and make those calls. And our public interest salaries were cut as well when budgets got tough.

I always feel extremely sorry for Family Medicine. A few years ago I had the chance to become a kindergarten teacher and already had a year experience, because I did a voluntary year in a kindergarten. In this one year I've witnessed so many things...for example the way parents treat their children. A three year old girl sat in front of me and told me how much her body hurts every time she had ballet lessons. A THREE year old girl. The parents knew about that. It felt like as if at least 75% of the parents were awful. Most parents there had very fancy jobs. Lawyers, scientists, doctors, CEOs etc.. Watching parents treat their own children like a piece of po*p and not being able to do anything about it is one of the most awful feelings to exist. That's why I decided to not work with children, even though it's one of the things I'm really good at. And that's why I have huge respect for every single person that works with children or people in general.

You know this person is built to be a kindergarten teacher because they self- censored the word "poop" in a KZbin comment. Only the most caring person would do that.

You still need to be in a movie. Or two. Or three. Or . . . Can you write yourself a screenplay and film it yourself? You’re one of the most talented actors I’ve ever seen!! Maybe THE most talented.

My parent worked for a Family Medicine physician for about 15-20 years. We could always tell when he was around because he had a heavy limp. Doc blew his knee out and couldn't/wouldn't take the time to let it recover, then he couldn't/wouldn't attend his own physical therapy appointments. Then, when it got worse he couldn't/wouldn't take time off to get the corrective surgery. The man has threatened to retire for the last 20 years, all while definitely not retiring and angrily dragging around that painful cluster of nerves that he calls a leg. I swear, Family Medicine Doctors work like mules and are twice as obstinate. When people say, "Doctors are the worst patients." they mean Family Medicine doctors.

PCPs are as close to social workers as medicine gets outside the mental health department. So determined to help everyone they can't say no and end up in worse shape than their patients/clients by the time they retire it's truly worrisome.

Just find a good rhythm and routine and stick to it. Train your support staff thoroughly at the beginning and make all of your expectations clear and detailed at the beginning. And buy everyone lunch once a week. If you do that, you'll be fine.
