Thats big should though - realistically doctors, at least here in the uk , ive come across couldnt care less , they have budgets they have to manage under guidance plans thier given ( iornically called N.I.C.E ) with set prices that decided what you get before anything else.
And as I mentioend before even cancer patients arent getting the drugs they need , so all the nhs here have too is disagree with it - regardless of how effective it is - and simply say they cant afford it while allowing and paying for more polish and other folk to come here and abuse the system .
And if you go private you just end up paying the same amount for the same garabage resources / services because its usually the same doctors with the same amout of regard for your wellbeing , so where does that leave the patients ?
Id rather have honest doctor or one I knew was going to at least given me the right answer than one posing to help me while clearly being nothing more than expenditure manager for resources that already considered 3rd world as it is.
Until health care ethics is seperated from business and those it attracts the patients are always going to come last , and isnt thats whats happening now , not just in health , but everywhere - hence the economy woes ?
