Sometimes I feel like doctors are so worried about protecting themselves against malpractice suits and other litigation that they order every test whether the patient needs it or not. If someone has good insurance even better......for the doctor, at least.
I'm not saying that some tests aren't necessary and some can even spot something before it gets out of hand but some procedures are, IMHO, unnecessary and overly invasive.
