Most people think a lot of their doctors. They want their doctors to be objective, scientific, detached, and yet caring, compassionate and sensitive. In short, they want doctors who are more saints than healing people.
It makes sense that people like this from their doctors. If you lie on the examination table with a doctor probing your anus, vagina, penis or other painful organ, you believe that the person doing this to you is pure,healthy, honest, competent, and do what is best for you. You do not want to think that the doctor is a little twist with a certain license for abuse.
Well, I'm afraid I have bad news for you. I have been in medicine, and I know of.
Put yourself in the shoes of a doctor. At a time when he or she just like you, a layman. They went to kindergarten and elementary school and did what they were told that learned how to take tests and get the expected answers, and as a resultmade high grades. They thought this way until they got into medical school. They were chosen for their grades and test results.
For some jobs, applicants must take on the personality tests that provide an indication of their character. Are they anti-social, they are honest, they would steal? She wants to know this staff before them a job. But for those applying for the job of the physician, there is no such sign tests. Candidates will be selected from academicTest. And these people will be trusted with human life.
Would always be high values in chemistry or physics or mathematics will make a great doctor? Of course not. Is to know, physiology, anatomy, biochemistry and make you compassionate? You can make you a good physiologist, anatomist, or a biochemist, but they have nothing to do with compassion. In fact, torture, since most medical sciences are strongly dependent on cruel animal testing, and kill millions of dogs, cats, monkeys,Rats and other animals every year, there is nothing more out of pity, as the field of medicine.
In fact, medical education is aware designed to desensitize the laity, blood and guts, so they with doctors. Dealing with sick people who require some intense pain, fear, fearful, helpless, a cool head. It is important that doctors keep calm when everyone else is over the edge. In the real world, of course, you have to learn how cool and collected in aCrisis. Since the doctors have not been selected for something other than test scores, is the fact that most students do not live up to that ideal. If you had all had to do with their patients to maintain their health history in written form and to take a test, what drugs they give, there would be no problem for doctors, especially if the tests are multiple choice, as in medical schools and licensing of medical tests.
But the medical care requires different skills andPersonalities not only in multiple-choice tests. Why have so many medical specialties for students. Medical School choice lasts four years. The first two years, the textbooks and laboratories. The last two years you will receive in various medical specialties for a few weeks to try a few months to see what you like. Some people like the thrill of a crisis. They usually go into emergency medicine. Enjoy the adrenaline thrust of aHeart attack or a car accident. You may not see the people slowly dying, chronic diseases and drug side effects. They prefer the medical Quicky long term commitment. Come in, get up and get patched referred to another doctor for follow-up.
Others who will receive a jolt of stress in the surgery. Imagine the stress you feel when you cut open a stranger's chest, blood spurts everywhere, nurses handed stop clinging to the river, machines beeping faster to the patientPulse and respiration, sweat dripping from your forehead from the nurse smear alert the anesthesiologist that the patient goes into cardiac arrest, and all the while staying on top of things in your outward appearance to talk cracking dirty jokes with the nurses and timeshare resorts with the anesthesiologist. What a job!
For those who prefer more like the old times there are family medicine physician. You get the children, parents, pregnant women, the elderly, to see the full range ofHumanity and with all sorts of problems. When push comes to shove, send them to another specialist. People used to trust you, and tell their life story secrets. This is the medicine lite, a great specialty for relaxed people.
I remember a doctor for a check-up I am on my 30th Birthday came at a time in my life before I believed in the medicine and when I was still in routine check-ups. He has a thorough examination, including a rectal examination for prostate LookEnlargement and other signs of inflammation. I did not expect it. "Pull down your pants and bend over," he told me. He was a tall, blond, handsome doctor, about 6 '4 ", unmarried, but apparently heterosexual." Is this really necessary? "I asked." Yes. "So I bent over. He put a small condom on his finger slipped some vasoline jelly on it and it went as I retreated angrily." What is your sex life, "he said, while breaks in orient themselves." Just fine, "I replied,slightly annoyed that he did not even pull me out to lunch.
Not long after I had admitted to medical school. Before I started classes, I went to a local low-income clinic volunteers, hoping to gain more experience. They pulled me in a white coat, called me a "student doctor", and in no time I was doing a pelvic exam on a 18-year-old woman. The doctor has completed the first test, and instructed me to feel uncomfortable for the cervix, when I slipped my glovesIn the strange woman lightly scented vagina. My amateur days were over. I was already there, access to institutions of peoples.
Some guys would have been envious, I think, as long as you do not eliminate pus. Imagine what kind of types of gynecologists. You get to tell the women to strip for them all day long, all types of women. You will get their fingers into her vagina, anus stuck and believe that their breasts. You want to feel their patients, they are expertson women, although they are only human and had never been a time when wearing a bra, or had some strange type probe her vagina.
Of course, do exist, this specialty. What would it take to have to examine your sense of women, pusy, stinking, sick vagina everyday? If your wife gets love, you need to reflexively reach for your glove and lubricant?
While most men are gynecologists, urologists are mostly women. Women are willing to have a strange doctor probe herGenitalia. But most men would feel strange to have a doctor probe her penis. Of course it feels strange, a man probe your penis, too. What a person learns Urology and dressed for a lifetime specialty of dealing with penile and prostate problems?
The same is true also in demand for proctologist. Imagine identify before, as a medical student, when you think it would be exciting to work with rectums and double points. What would it take to see your humanity butts all day, year afterYears?
As you can see, it might be difficult to make a variety of specialties. If you are really an idealistic person and came to take medicine to end suffering, you are in some disappointment and sadness. I know a rheumatologist to see no more, to die slowly with their patients do not finish in the position too much to alleviate their suffering. She decided to change specialties and an anesthesiologist, so that all their patients were unconscious and she did not know toopersonally.
The medical students, which no other form fit and are a little strange, as a rule, to psychiatrists, the mask of blood and guts of the search for the spirit. Psychiatrists, even a hopeless case, often feel great emotional relief and increased self-esteem simply by listening to other people's problems all day long, so that a therapeutic effect of psychiatry for the doctor. This is a particularly attractive specialty for medical students, LSD, or enjoyPeyote and remained high through most of their basic science education. You can really twisted fantasies of men and hallucinations. But beware of the power hungry shrink. You can call crazy, you lock it and keep you drugged out of my head for the rest of your life, if they want to.
In fact, doctors have all kinds of responsibilities for the public. These must be considered in people with drugs and surgery practice. Like a doctor may be that you accidentally kill a patient, or to make they look random and go scot-free, if you think it can show standard medical procedures. And you can even account of the deceased patient's estate for services. Well, that's power. This power is attractive to some people why they became doctors in the first place. Of course, as in politics, put someone in power is exactly the kind of person who should not get it. Growing child is missing the word "doctor" all the time and have the"Power, money and prestige of our culture gives the doctors are not necessarily the best people to treat patients fairly, sensitively and with the interests of patients primarily in mind. These doctors do not serve the health needs of their patients. The patients are used, their doctors need power.
Together with the power of medicine is the money. Above all, the medicine is a business. It is in the business of treating diseases by the physician usingmakes itself best when you are sick, not when you are good. This provides the physician, like the auto mechanic, you invested in mining. It means the doctor has invested in the disease and treatment, and is the enemy of health and prevention. If you help in medical school, to heal mankind, this sad fact about the basic, underlying economic momentum of medicine to be enough for you to leave the profession. It has left me. It made me realize that if you want to be healthy, youmust stop doing things that you are ill, including going to doctors to make.
Also bear in mind the next time you want to read, you notice that the person that evidence is no different than anyone else. They are not necessarily saints, to prevent the vows of poverty for the treatment of patients and diseases. They are not necessarily neutral, objective, older people, their personal feelings may be removed from their work. They are ordinary people who have been granted a license to practice on you. Theyhave the same perversion, prejudice, ignorance, selfishness and petty lives than the rest of humanity, but they are attracted to the lucrative and powerful businesses of the disease.
Say: "Ah!"
