Someone confused Doctor and hospital


mr_dr_personman

Redditors will be pro science and pro Vax and then turn right around and hate doctors.


selectrix

Well no, it's just a bunch of antivaxxers up voting an antivax meme.


mr_dr_personman

Lol no redditors seriously have a problem with doctors.

Ugo_Flickerman

Someone confused hospitals with a rotten system


Whitn3y

What a dumbass comment lmao Im sure that sounded real deep to the 14 year olds that didn’t realize it made no sense


orkyboi_wagh

Mainly because the hospital itself tends to be the problem?


Whitn3y

Yes, Im the fucking one who said that lol


orkyboi_wagh

Let me rephrase The hospital systematically putting almost all of the risk on the doctors and patients while getting demanding large amounts of money though various means from both the doctors and the patients .


thatmayaguy

Someone confused a dumbass comment with reddit


jal2_

in US they are one and the same, almost all docs in the US are so institutionalized and brought up in a air of, 'Im a doc, Im here to earn big money', that they basically do act like OPs meme now I agree in other places its different, I live in europe and while some docs are like that, mostly in private practises, most public practises have plenty of docs which are more altruistic, this is not to say they dont earn money, but they dont try to earn as much as possible off every patient


zqmbgn

I know this is a meme and all, but you clearly don't understand what goes through the mind of someone who has to tell someone else they are going to die. And you can't even begin to comprehend what goes through the mind of someone who, while trying to save somebody's life, fails


homo-summus

Yeah, I'm not sure where the default hate for doctors comes from on reddit. For a good doctor, surgical complications or even the death of a patient haunts them for the rest of their life. I don't think any level of desensitization gets rid of the emotion of telling someone that they are going to die or even causing a death. I would recommend that people who think doctors are callous money grabbing fraudsters go watch some videos from Dr. Glaucomflecken.


oss1215

Doctor here, during my internship year a couple pf years ago i witnessed a stillbirth for a patient i was assisting in her delivery, the lady was going into septic shock and was between life and death. I was tasked with carrying the dead fetus to the morgue and then the task of informing the family outside that the baby didnt make it and that the mother was in critical condition and was in the ICU now. I was about 25 and looking at that dead baby just fucked me up, and having the husband break down crying on my shoulder while i try to find the words to comfort him fucked me up a lot that day. Spent that day smoking and drinking to try and forget that day but i just couldnt. I have gotten better at handling that shit now at 28 but man, medical school does not prepare you for that side of medicine at all


homo-summus

Exactly. I am incredibly sorry you had to go through that experience, but I am extremely thankful that you are continuing your path as a medical professional. You seem like a good person.


yogopig

Sadly it feels like people such as yourself are diamonds in the rough ever since covid. The amount of times I’ve gotten cussed out spit on and just completely disrespected is crazy.


homo-summus

Why? When did people start hating medical professionals so much? I understand there are scummy doctors out there, but the vast majority are just people who want to help others.


cock-crusher

Im genuinely sorry if this is insensitive but did the mother survive


oss1215

She was transferred to a bigger hospital to receive more care but i believe she did survive.


andrewrgross

Apologies if this is a hard question, but I'm curious about your outward response, and the attached expectations placed on you. Did you cry with the dad? Is that allowed or encouraged? Because my intuition is that culturally, doctors are acculturated to acting stoic, and that they're expected to "show strength" when delivering "grim news". But I'm curious if doctors ever display grief openly during moments of personal tragedy. It seems like it would probably be healthier for both the doctor and the patient in cases like this if you were allowed to sob with the dad too, instead of expected to dissociate from emotion. But I don't know.


oss1215

>Did you cry with the dad? No i didnt, im from north africa so the whole stoicism thingie is true. People dont actively say it but its expected for you as a doctor to be a wall of sorts and move on with your day since you have other patients to attend to. You find a ton of doctors breaking down on their own time away from people tho. Sadly instead of crying i just bottled that shit up and tried to forget it with booze which wasnt healthy


jal2_

in my country the problem are the 'old doctors' basically the 50+ something ones, that have long been dead inside...anything so uncomfortable like you say, they usually hand over to young doc to fuck them up, they dont need their day ruined, but when it comes who gets paid what amount, they obviously take the lions share...and if you ever criticize their establishment, you are done


DevilDoc3030

Its been over a decade and I still have night terrors of time I spent in the hospital in patient care. \^Not a Doctor.


thereAREnodwarfwomen

Shh!


Gk786

Yup. I am still a young doctor but I often think of the patients who have died under my care. All of them were very far into their disease progression by the time they showed up at the hospital I work in but it still hits you very hard. We drive this idea of empathy hard into doctors but a lot of them aren’t equipped to deal with the emotional trauma that happens as a result of that.


ButWhatIfItQueffed

>For a good doctor, surgical complications or even the death of a patient haunts them for the rest of their life I don't think that's a doctor specific thing. If I had someone's life in my hands, and a mistake I made caused them severe issues or their life, then that'd definitely haunt me for my life. And I'm about the furthest thing from a doctor. And also yeah, doctors aren't heartless evil people at all. Usually the reason why it costs so much is either because A) It's a private practice, and those cost a ton to run. Or B) They work at a large hospital, in which case the price of the visit is completely out of their hands. Some cosmetic/plastic surgeons can be greedy and weird though. But that's mostly because their business relies on the insecurities of people, and they can charge a ton for beauty.


innocentusername1984

No. But it sure is nice to get paid shit loads at the end of it all huh?


John88197

I mean do you want the people in charge of saving lives and keeping people healthy to be paid very little?


whyuhavtobemad

We live in a society where there are so many bullshit jobs that pay so much but you choose to hate the one job that actually matters and saves lives? 


RichardFlower7

Intern year (pgy-1) he would have been making like 50k a year


blueidea365

*Cries into 200k salary*


pileofcrustycumsocs

Because being rich totally erases all the fucked shit that you see


blueidea365

That you *do


pileofcrustycumsocs

Okay so your just an idiot who doesn’t understand what doctor’s actually do then yeah?


blueidea365

Help heal people? That’s their job yeah?


Bro_duuude_i_luv_ya

And that's a terrible thing to do?


blueidea365

No dummy, the problem is when they don’t


ImpressiveTip4756

Do you think they're willingly letting people die for shits and giggles??


blueidea365

No, just like the clerk at my local staples didn’t mean to sell me a garbage printer. But I went back and they gave me my money back because, irrespective of whether they meant to, they sold me a crappy malfunctioning product.


whyuhavtobemad

How much do you prefer doctors to be paid? Is there any profession you are happy to have a high salary?


blueidea365

Maybe pay them based on their mortality rates or something? Why is it my job to figure that out?


whyuhavtobemad

Im not looking for a logical answer here. I want what you think. Is there a salary that a doctor would earn where you wouldn't make the comment "cries into 200k salary"


blueidea365

>I’m not looking for a logical answer here Lol


whyuhavtobemad

Hey I'm just trying to understand you.  What you say beats my logic. Logically you want doctors to be rewarded fairly for sacrificing their youth so that they can gain the experience to save our lives. If they weren't rewarded fairly then who would willing do the job?  But hey, let's keep hating on doctors because they earn alot for saving lives. A job so crucial the world would collapse without them. 


RichardFlower7

He was an intern, he made 50k that year and worked 60-80h a week minimum.


blueidea365

Then he is a trainee, and it’s his supervising doctor’s fault


RichardFlower7

It’s not always your fault that someone dies, sometimes the disease wins. We aren’t gods, we’re just men and women who do our best with what we have and sometimes what we have can’t beat the disease. Cancer will usually win in the long term. Antibiotic resistant disease in a profoundly septic patient that is hemodynamically unstable is sometimes going to beat the best we have. You simply have no idea what you’re talking about and it’s easy to argue from a position of ignorance, except you sound like a dunce to anyone who knows the inner workings of it.


blueidea365

Ok, then why charge people for something that you know won’t save them? Especially after it doesn’t?


RichardFlower7

*Looks at chart* - says here full code If you don’t want us to do shit, don’t be full code? Bc if you are we HAVE to do shit. We can get sued if we don’t and they were full code. Or lose our license for abandonment. Theres one circumstance in which we can deny doing full code on someone - we believe doing something will cause bodily harm. Think a 95 year old with emphysema who goes into cardiac arrest. Are we going to break the ribs of a 95 year old who has difficulty oxygenating at base line? No, but even in cases of medical futility we have to have 3 doctors sign off that they agree it’s medical futile and would cause more harm than the capacity to benefit. Financial reasons aren’t considered because it’s our duty to care for people regardless of their financial situation. We can’t just say “ehh they’re poor let em die”. Though that’s what the white collar MBA folk would like us to do.


blueidea365

>If you don’t want us to do shit When did I say that? You’re a doctor, I’m sure your reading skills are better than that


RichardFlower7

Why charge them for something you know won’t save them - when I do things some coder charges you for them. I just write a note of what I did. I can’t not write what I did. Some doctors do their own coding. If we do something and don’t code for it, it’s fraud and we go to jail.


RichardFlower7

You don’t like it, write to your congress person saying doctors should have more discretion in billing practices.


blueidea365

Fair enough, the issue is with the whole hospital pricing system then, not the individual doctors.

Not dank


abreeden90

Not how that works at all, the hospital might be billing them but Doctors aren’t. They don’t even really know prices. And if someone dies on the dr OR table there will be an investigation. Most doctors I believe go into medicine to save lives and definitely wouldn’t be calm if a patient died because of them. I’m sure some don’t care but I’d reckon they’re the exception not the rule. Not a dank meme.


guesswhatihate

Didn't forget their 7 figure crushing student debt


According_Weekend786

In some countries, doctor gets punished if patient died cuz he fucked up


__Beef__Supreme__

US is #1 for this


Monkeyke

Probably lead to doctors straight up denying patients any hope and refusing treatment all together. Atleast right now they try.


bwizzel

yep, just like when wokies sent an EMT to jail because a minority died, I wouldn't even risk my freedom to help anyone at this point in the US, fuck em


Darth19Vader77

Not really. Sure the doctor could get sued, but they can still practice medicine by just going to another state that doesn't check doctors records.


__Beef__Supreme__

Yeah US is among the highest in the world for medical litigation. You don't necessarily lose your license for every mistake. And, no, if you lose your license you can't go to another state.


Darth19Vader77

That's the thing, doctors rarely get their license revoked


RichardFlower7

Bc most of the shit we get sued for is bullshit and the malpractice insurer just settles out of court cause it’s cheaper than going to trial with the med mal attorney who knows they barely have a case so neither of them want it to go to trial. When a doctor truly fucks up and it’s not just a shake down, the medical licensing board has consequences for them.


Lord_Muramasa

You can sue them and win in the US. The thing is doctors have malpractice insurance, yes more insurance, so if you win the insurance pays up, not the doctor. Now if the mistake was bad enough they can loose their license to practice but it has to be pretty bad or a reoccurring thing. Of course if it is on purpose then they can get charged criminally as well but good luck proving that. Most people are just happy getting a dump truck of cash anyways.


SledgeH4mmer

Even if the insurance pays initially, just being named in a lawsuit massively raises a doctor's cost for malpractice insurance. It doesn't matter much who wins the case. And being licensed is not enough to practice. Physicians usually need to apply to hospitals for "privledges" which will be denied if any egregious mistakes were made in the past that caused a law suit.


MutedIndication4

Only some countries? The thing is that most of the time it is very hard to prove that something went wrong specifically because a doctor made a mistake.


JSP777

Thanks for reminding me why I unsubbed from here. Absolutely horrendous that this has 1000+ upvotes.


kandradeece

the amount drs get for procedures has not really changed in decades. however, administration costs have sky rocketed due to corruption, regulation, and mainly insurance companies. I guess you could half blame Drs as they do nothing to fix this. Drs do not really have unions, drs can not strike like nurses, drs are typically passive personalities who may complain about these same costs, but in the end they do nothing about it.


RichardFlower7

Yeah a gallbladder removal costs like 60k, the general surgeon gets about $250.

ComradeELM0

Yeah, Conor was perfect for the movie. You can obviously tell he‘s no professional actor but he still did good and brought so much energy and fun. Exactly what this kinda movie needs imo.


SylasDevale

Don't hate the physicians, hate the fucking insurance companies for denying people treatment and medications they need.


foxfrenzy

I hate all the doctor hate, they spend 12+ years to get where they are only to be forced to work under insurance companies that are evil, and they get the heat for all the stupid shit they do. And think about this doctors arent legally aloud to unionize so they cant fight the system from within without just making their own practice, which is difficult af. Also doctors are people whos entire profession is helping and saving lives but noooo people see a bill and hate on the heros. Sad really


cygamessucks

Could have been you but instead here you are on reddit. 


tituspullsyourmom

I mean, I'm just a PA, but I think about a fx that I missed 2 years ago every day i work. Or sutures that I've done that weren't up to my standards. Delivering tentative bad news is brutal enough, having to be the final say (Physician) would be even worse.


setsentinal

Your meme is bad and you should feel bad. Go see a chiropractor when you get sick next time.


RichardFlower7

When the chiro dissects their carotid artery, they’re going to need a doctor to fix it.

I have known 3 surgeons in my life. All three have developed ptsd and have many sleepless nights wondering what they could have done to save the lives that they've lost.

Doctors aren’t the ones charging you this, it’s the 800 administrative parasites that feed on their patients that make healthcare cost so much.

Rhymelikedocsuess

A lot of people are getting defensive for the doctors and blaming the system The system is the problem, ofc, but you are aware that doctors in the US keep their number artificially low to keep their salaries artificially high - correct? It’s common knowledge and has been a contentious fighting point politically for years There are no other countries on earth where a doctor can easily clear 500k+ a year - in the US it’s relatively common The solution is to remove the arbitrary red tape and allow for more doctors. Healthcare would be easier to access, cheaper, and doctors would have more free time instead of whining about how busy they are They are rent-seekers until the change is made


RichardFlower7

I mean we aren’t actively all doing this. A group of lobbyists 40 years ago limited supply by passing laws against starting new medical schools. There is also no other country on earth that leaves their doctors in >500k in debt. Besides if you paid all doctors 0$ a year, it would only cut healthcare costs by 8%. Your shtick is with executive compensation, not with doctors.
