Hello Dr. Dhand, I was recently watching a rather long panel discussion video (3hrs) regarding general economic conditions out there at the moment. One of the examples that was discussed was the recent collapse and bankruptcy of Red Lobster. There is an MSM narrative revolving around losses from their Endless Shrimp promotion, though it appears the actual cause was the acquisition of the company by private equity who then stripped and looted the company's asset portfolio and essentially walked away with about $1.5B while leaving only debt and uncertainty in their wake. My apologies for the long intro but it is pertinent to my question. One of the panelists mentioned a number of hearsay stories from friends and clients of his (Mid-Atlantic region) that are accomplished physicians of one sort or another. They report that the same style of corporate raids have been inflicted upon several hospital and healthcare holding companies that are now owned by private equity firms. The results, as reported secondhand, are that those physicians working within one of the afflicted hospital systems have far lower job satisfaction, increased hassles, fewer or suboptimal treatment options due to profit margin spreadsheets instead of patient outcomes dictating treatments, and just generally making an already difficult job even harder to do well despite the soaring costs and plummeting outcomes. Would you care to address any insights you might have on the impact of such corporate shenanigans on your experiences in the last decade or two? The video referenced was the most recent Tuesday night livestream on Sachs Realty y/t channel if you're interested. It's extremely solid info and analysis for the macro perspective. Best regards, Mike

We moved from the U.S. to central Mexico for a number of reasons including more accessible, affordable health care. While I'm not saying the system is perfect here (we do our own research when we have to take meds, etc.) but already I've had TWO house calls to our RV park (foodborne one time, subluxed hip, the other) and both times had a thorough checkup and the doc answered all my questions even telling me what to eat for the next week (in the case of the food illness). Cost for the housecall in both cases was around $30US and in the case of the hip issues included an injection of a corticosteroid (and that doc gave a painless shot, too)! I received Rx for all meds and they always give you a personal cell phone number in case you need them. Another time I had lab tests at a very modern laboratory here in Oaxaca. Two full blood panels and a urine panel. Cost in pesos was about $45US. AND I just walked in and requested the tests...no appointment. There are docs available at many of the pharmacies where you can walk in for minor issues and get diagnosed. That costs under 100 pesos, generally or about $6US. Sure, you can go to private clinics here and pay a bit more and get more english speaking staff but so far after going without med care for almost 2 decades in the U.S. (we ordered antibiotics from farm supply stores the rare times we needed them...how sad is that?) we're feeling pretty darn good about our decision to leave the U.S.

Obama in concert with insurance companies did this/ACA. EVERYTHING changed with "Affordable Care Act" - my premiums almost doubled three times then & I got NOTHING in return, except higher co-pays and less coverage through my self pay private insurance. I looked in to ACA and it was almost just as expensive as private coverage because I don't qualify as "Poverty level" b/c "I own a home and a car" - I notice my non-citizen friends are driving Extremely Expensive & New cars to cash jobsites & the only persons who have affordable healthcare now because they do qualify as poverty by accepting cash not reported to irs and not paying taxes at all or just at poverty level irs income claims... & by making very good use of the ER. We must take OUR country and OUR CITIZEN finances back. I'm certainly glad Trump reversed the law MANDATing the purchase of medical insurance - I only wished they could have done more to fix the Insurance & healthcare matrix. I don't think it will ever be able to be fully reversed, now... but, MAYBE 2024!?! This is REALLY BAD FOR ALL THE LOW TO MIDDLE CLASS CITIZENS OF THE US. The wealthy and taxpayer funded income/healthcare recipients don't worry about it at all. No shade - just facts! The endgame is complete socialized medicine/authoritarian controlled, without decent caring professional eyes and ears on patients. Covid was the trial run.

If they cannot test it, they cannot DX. the ailment, NO CLINICAL SKILLS. The doctors today do not care about the patient unlike in decades past. Health care in the USA is in the toilet. I am 79, the doctors do not care about patients, and only care about the bottom line. They have sold out. No respect from me for these poor medical doctors. They miss DX. all the time, have party lines that the big medical mills dictate. What you are saying is correct. These doctors are not caring, available or able to Dx.

One with a walker, which I assumed was the 100 yr old pt. I was wrong, She was the 79yr old daughter,lol. The daughter called and was frantic and the pt was calm and even walked to my ambulance,she refused the stretcher,lol. In fact, she didn't even want to go,it was the daughter who wanted her seen. I told the pt she had the right to refuse transport as her vitals for her age were excellent. She said she'd go as she'll never get any sleep and be nagged endlessly. Nothing I could do as she no longer had any discomfort and her ekg was even normal, no shortness of breath, nothing, just annoyed at her daughter,lol. That day was her 100th bday, and yes, she still walked,still had her witts about her and quite funny actually. She even looked like SHE was in her 70s. I asked her what her secret was, this is what she told me, " I've never seen a Dr, I stay away from those evil people (lol),I eat bacon and eggs every morning, I make my own meals-never processed or frozen except 1, I have a peppermint patty after dinner and I do what I want and when I want",lol. Her daughter, former RN was very heavyweight, aged beyond her years, needed a walker, had countless surgeries and on countless meds, diebetic and hypertension. She eats mostly processed foods,quick foods, lots of sandwiches and icecream,lol. There was a stark difference between the two. My pt was within her weight, no b/p or diabetes issues, still had all her feminine organs and still had most of her bottom teeth. When her teeth would go bad and she had infections, she'd drink whiskey to help with the pain and grab a pair of needle nose pliers and removed them. The woman was tough and I was extremely impressed. I hated to leave her at the hospital on her bday for someone who probably just had indigestion, but she taught me a very valuable lesson that day and I'll never forget her.

On the last visit before her septic shock, she went in for a new MRI and was told she “looked anemic” was given blood and sent home. She was completely fucking orange. Next day she was dying of septic shock and her liver was now also infected. Like a fucking joke. She was in septic shock when she arrived at the hospital. Almost died. Almost lost her leg. Her new doctor, a kidney specialist, was overheard talking to a nurse saying “how tf did this get this bad? Why did [other doctor] allow this to get this far? This is the worst case of this infection I have ever seen.” - and the crazy part: “I hate working with incompetent “COVID doctors” “ !!!

As a cancer patient, what I finally noticed is that most doctors will take into account what the insurance company, hospital administrators, and pharmaceutical companies want before they even begin to consider what the patient needs. A friend who is a former oncology nurse told me that hematologists/oncologists don't look at your chart and decide how best to treat you. They look at your chart and decide how many dollar signs that can put beside your name. She left the field because she got tired of arguing with doctors about patient care. We need more people like that in healthcare, but those people generally fired or burnt out. Modern medicine rarely takes a "whole body" approach and in most states it's difficult to find or afford a functional medicine doctor, naturopath, or anyone else who might know what to do. I've done a lot of my "healthcare" completely on my own and have even found studies and medications that my hematologist didn't know about or hadn't considered. I've already outlived what my first hematologist told me I would, so I tell people to read everything you can get your hands on and be your own advocate. The medical industry isn't here to cure us. They are here to make sure they have reoccurring customers. If it collapses, I hope a lot of providers, hospitals, and companies realize they deserve to lose everything.

While I agree on many of your points Dr. Dhand, I think one huge point as to driving the greed is the huge amount of cost it takes to go to school (at least in the US). Some schools charge over $150K - $400k ( I myself had a $350k) debt that accrued interest while in residency training and in school so by the time you are poised to make payments it has ballooned even further. The average pediatrician makes $130k-$200k depending on the city with large costs of living before taxes. It makes sense why doctors are naturally filtering into specialties and the generalists are getting taken over. Other degrees cost way less and can afford that peace of mind from not having higher pay, which I think is a great thing. Still that doesn’t explain it all as many of these policies are coming from those physicians who have been in the field for ages. I agree with what others said that it’s a mix of many players, not just doctors. The system is terribly misbalanced and the burnout is so real as others have mentioned. I just want to give some of my fellow physicians some empathy from the audience. Give a perspective that it isn’t just greed for many doctors, it’s basic survival as you work long hours to train with a debt larger than houses that many average Americans can’t even afford. This is all when they are mostly in their late 20s getting training. It’s crazy to think what we are doing to many good willing people. The only ones with the peace of mind to think about anything other than grinding and working would be those who were able to afford or avoid the $250k medical school debt, so you’d have to think what kind of physician society that is screening for.

"Costs are skyrocketing". I had the unique position of knowing how much items cost for a hospital to order. I was also aware of how much the mark up could be in that hospital in certain situations. It was obscene. My family traveled out of state and had to have on of our children treated at an emergency room. I kept track of all details, including personnel, times, time frames and medicine details. When the bill arrived, I was incensed! I demanded an itemized list of those expenses. And would you know... the markup for the medicine was astronomical! I knew how much it costs for a hospital to order it. So I made arrangements to speak to management at that hospital to make the point that such pricing was abusive, shameful and unnecessary. I also knew exact times, names and personnel who entered the room. No one was going to exploit this situation. Needless to say, the bill was significantly reduced. It's an outrage healthcare admin has done as they have to the people. And often blame insurance companies! I fear it is a well-deserved collapse. But the people do need quality care professionals to help. Not entitlement-minded individuals with self-centered, poor bedside manner. Corrupt and evil big pharma has done WAAAAY to much harm in programming modern day medical professionals to do their bidding. It's contradictory to the oath.

I feel forced to take care of my own medical issues the best I can. I order what medical tests I can and monitor my own health, but I also desire a doctor who is knowledgeable and who cares. There are good ones, but they are not taking new patients. I do need certain meds, but for the most part I research and use alternative practice and supplements.

I’m also a BSN who stopped working in 2000 with 3 decades of experience. My husband was diagnosed with melanoma back in 2017 and during his course of treatment (at a very prestigious medical system) was admitted to determine an effective pain control regimen. At the time, he had undergone 3 rounds of immunotherapy with 2 different agents. During the testing to figure out the best combo to control his pain, he had a reaction to something and was put on massive doses of steroids; he remained on this high dosage for 3 weeks post discharge. The down side is that steroids act in direct opposition to the action of immunotherapy and so he was “fast tracked” off them in order to continue his immunotherapy. This led to the predictable shut down of his adrenals. He was readmitted for evaluation and put on IV steroid support (huge dose 3x/day). When it appeared he was stable, they withdrew the IV steroids without any tapering. Within 12 hours he totally crashed and ended up in ICU. I was asked for directives should he need further life support. I went home, gathered the family and in the morning, we all went to see him for what we expected to be the last time. Surprise! He was awake, up and about, essentially his usual self! I couldn’t believe it! While I was going over his MAR with the RN, a parade of medical students/interns from literally 5 different “specialties” came in with their respective attending MD’s. Meanwhile, the light bulb went off for me and I made the connection between the high dose steroid and the abrupt withdrawal of said steroids. Shockingly, not one single student/intern/attending even glanced at his MAR or asked about his drug therapy. I couldn’t believe it. This prestigious healthcare system, which is a leader in training the next generation of healthcare professionals, failed miserably to properly diagnose the TRUE underlying etiology of my husbands crisis. In fact, I literally had to threaten his hospitalist to perform the diagnostics to confirm or rule out my suspicions. Turns out, I was correct. Me. A RN; who hadn’t practiced in over 15 years at the time; in the midst of a sea of medical educators and their students; in a world-renowned facility. And not a single one of the myriads who poked, prodded, and assessed him showed the slightest bit of initiative outside their own little niche medical specialty to try to “solve the puzzle” so to speak. Sadly, not even his ICU caregiver of the day. He was in hospital for 10 days that time and a major problem is that he had a different staff member assigned to him every day. There was no continuity of care and so the RN staff had no firsthand, “eyes on” baseline assessment to compare to. They were uninterested in any objective data I had to share. In the end, even I was wrong. Well, I was right to a degree. It wasn’t ONLY his adrenals that had shut down. Because of my persistence, he was administered the adrenal challenge diagnostics; his adrenals were effectively dead. This led to consultation with an endocrinologist. The results of those diagnostics were that his entire endocrine system was dead. The endocrinologist said, and I quote, “we killed your pituitary gland, but the good news is we have pharmaceutical replacements for that. You can take thyroid replacements and steroid replacement, and at your age (he was 64) you don’t really need the testosterone anymore (what?!) The bad news is, it will take 3 weeks to reach therapeutic levels. After that you’ll feel as good as new.” He did not survive for 3 more weeks. Couple this shocking experience with the events of the 2020 worldwide healthcare “crisis” and I no longer am a proponent of the so-called western model of healthcare. Or any model of healthcare. I have researched alternative therapies and practice self-care. Happily, I did not contract that man made disease and haven’t been ill since before that. I’ll never trust our healthcare system again. MD’s are interested only in their own little niche of the market. People cannot be divided up like that. Humans are integrated wholes and a disruption in one area affects the entire system. MD’s have lost sight of this fact. Hospital staff in general seem to be there only for the paycheck. You must be your own advocate.

Ultimately lost my ability to have kids. & ended up with massive scar tissue & adhesions. I was constantly blamed for what happened. Because the medical industry chose to protect themselves over actually helping me. It would be one thing if it was just one hospital. Or one doctor. But no matter what doctor I go to.

Unable to eat so I was on IV nutrition aka TPN. Also ended up w a blood clot & pancreatitis. & ultimately needed six additional surgeries including a total hysterectomy due to the malpractice.) the doctors & nurses would whisper to my family members that came to see me that I was a hypochondriac or had munchausens. Or that my mother had munchausens. It created doubt that really never went away. I took a lot of that on. Thought something was mentally wrong w me. That I was “bad”. It’s taken me years to realize that it was the way the hospital & the drs I came across protected themselves. The last straw for me was going to see a dr while constantly having a heart rate of 130+ & palpitations. He said I might have a tumor on my adrenal gland. I looked up the side effects of the meds he was prescribing me & realized it wasn’t a tumor. It was the medicine. I stopped every med & never looked back. I finally found peace.

Hospitals used to be run by doctors. During the 80's, these doctors started selling out, accepting big bonuses and salaries from hedge funds to sell their hospital.

Now, these hospitals are run by big corporations like a business, with the sole purpose of profits. No longer can we care about the well being of our patients. No longer do we do what we do to help patients. Its all about profits. As result, hospital staff including doctors, nurses, rts are all treated like factory workers, trying to maximize as much pts we can take as possible with no care to patient well being. All healthcare workers are spread out too thin to be able to do their job properly today. As result, things are missed. Things are not done. Or people are too tired to do them on a consistent basis as they are too burnt out from being overworked all the time. Healthcare is a sad world now, created by the failure of old doctors who sold out their future doctors for money.

Some of the dumbest, most stubborn people i have ever known were doctors, and i hang out with truckers all day.

[@erstwhile3793]

Haven’t been to a doctor since I broke a leg at the very beginning of 2020. An acquaintance/friend screamed at me the other day, when she learned that I don’t care to do regular checkups or screenings anymore. She sounded and looked so agitated and fearful as she told me that I “have to” do those. Why? At my age, regular checkups seem to function as a pipeline to more and more medicalization, with less and less fundamental improvements in actual health. I’ve always been healthy. Much to my own chagrin at times. As a kid, I would’ve liked more sick days off from school, and more sympathy occasionally. Lol. As an adult, I knew something fundamental was “wrong” with me, but it (so far) hasn’t shown up as anything conventional medicine knows how to diagnose or heal. Luckily, I’ve found my way to other, genuinely effective modes of healing what ails me (early developmental trauma, chronic trauma and stress). I’m not the least bit interested in presenting myself at a doctor’s office to be screened for diseases they do not understand the root causes of, cannot heal, but are determined to detect and push drugs at. No thank you. I’m not trying to live forever or to avoid death when it comes. Would like to die as little encumbered by the medicalization of aging, as I possibly can. Am doing my best to live in support of a healthy mind and body. There are things I’m aware I can do better at, in that arena. I will, as I become able to. In the meanwhile, stressing about them is counterproductive. The medical pipeline seems to be geared towards getting people to stress about their possible future illnesses. Again, no thanks.

We hold on to ONE doctor that has been wonderful for the past 15 years. Even though we have moved out of state we continue to ‘see’ her via zoom calls. She does not take insurance, limits her practice to the number of patients she can handle, listens and respected our decision not to vax, can be reached via email and phone between 6mo to 1 year check ups-no additional cost, does thorough blood work, is always researching alternatives to traditional Rx. We pay her about $300 per check up visit, period. It’s the way medicine should be practiced. She KEEPS us healthy with her guidance and counseling. I have been sick once in the past 5 years and had to go to our local clinic- 2 hour wait, saw 4 different doctors over 4 months and they all gave me a routine antibiotic and prednisone. Kicking myself in the rear end for not just calling her in the first place. But this has given me a whole new respect for doctors that care and will dig a little deeper for their patients.

Too much power has been given to families as well as they are now allowed to dictate what they want rather than seek the treatments that can truly benefit them. Nurses are overloaded with too many patients, too many other tasks that they should not be responsible for, dealing with be hated and abused by patients and family, and have no real backup from the superiors who couldn't care less if they stay or leave. Older nurses have told me about how much the profession has changed and how you can't give proper care anymore because they are overloaded. There are those who try to dissuade people from going into the field of healthcare because it is no longer something one is able to navigate. Schools teach this pretty world of proper care and then students find out what a load of bull that was when they start their career. Hospitals are taken advantage of by those who never pay and as a result drive up costs. Drug seekers get everything they want because of the fear hospitals have of being sued over every little thing. There are a lot of problems with the healthcare industry, but the way the people act and the things people do are a big issue as well. What will the future hold? If things continue down the current path, I shudder to think.

Pro tip: If you go to a hospital it is NOT OK to video tape your entire experience and post it on social media. And if you feel the need to run down your phones battery then bring your phone charger. And contrary to popular belief the ED is not a free hotel for friends and family with warm blankets, cooked meals, snacks and cable television. It is for patients.

The dedicated physician who has integrity (I worked for one) is becoming rarer day by day. None of the doctors do physical exams any more----without a lab or x-ray to provide a diagnosis, they can't diagnose anything with a physical exam. They really give me the impression that, despite 6 to 8 years (or more) of education, they don't really know anything. They are constrained by the (INSANE) 15 minute patient contact (including data entry into the computer), but they neither wonder about the patient's condition (What is really causing the patient's symptoms?) nor do they have the brain power to determine the CAUSE of the patient's symptoms. Instead, they input "symptom" and read the output: "Give the patient medicine X", which is what the doctor does, and the patient receives a bill which, hopefully, his insurance will help pay. Thank you, Dr. Dhand. Your comments are always welcome.

I’m sorry, but when the opiate epidemic in this country is a CRISIS and the patient could potentially walk out the door that day, get high and never come back at all, we need to work something out here. The doctors keep lowering the threshold for needing an EKG. First it was 300mgs/day and you would need one each year, then it dropped to 250mg, then 200mg and now it’s at 150mgs. It’s money money money money money and the patient is the least priority. When i lost my medical assistance once about a year ago, no one even called to tell me and then demanded payment from me for the very day I came back in to dose. No one sat me down and gave me options. But then the intake counselor goes and gets a DUI and she’s still running groups. Can’t even make this stuff up.
