Doctors do lie and don't know much and want only money from patients when it's not necessary ?

Question

Every time I visit it feels like they just want money instead of giving me treatment of those are needed.

It's not like selling a product so shouldn't they try to do only the ones that are needed ?

And when I ask questions they say something like you'll have to search on the internet (when I asked what kind of laser do I have to use for that ?)

and when I visited the eye doctor she was rude talking like I need to keep my eyes open wide without failing. She prescribed me eye medicines. One was artificial tears, one for blood shot eyes.

When I visited the pharmacy they say if I use this too much I'll go blind.

When I had a surgery the doctor was talking to the assistant probably and told him if you do it like that he'll get more scars ugh! and I heard that while they were doing the surgery.
So I was used for practice for that assistant ?
They wouldn't even give me privacy for changing clothes.

Didn't even told me to take the paper instructions after I've been through surgery and couldn't think or walk well. So I had to go back up again.

and the nurse got angry when I asked a question.

Answer 1

Well, it sounds like you need to take an active role on your care and advocacy. As my mother always told me, "Don't see a doctor until you can tell him what's wrong." There are so many resources available these days that it is easier than ever to be an active participant in your own care. Are doctors incompetent? Yup. Same in as any other field, but it is your body and your health, so you'd be foolish to be ignorant about it.

Answer 2

Your right. I 100% agree with you. I had a surgery I didn't need on my jaw that the doctors told my foster parents I needed at cook county hospital. I was fine.

Answer 3

sounds to me like you need to report them to the health board or the medical board and find a new doctor

Answer 4
