Doctors suck. My dentist and my orthodontist schedule the next visit during my current visit this assuring I get my regular checkups. They listen to my problems and try to solve them.
Doctors act like they don't want to see you. The idea of making a regular checkup schedule is beyond them and they don't seem to do the tests that everyone else says I should have. "You look healthy, eat more vegitables and get out of my office"
Fuckers!
One theory is that they are overbooked. That doctors have all the patients they need and so they just want to get through them as quick as possible and don't make regular scheduled exams. And some politicians think that socialized medicine is a good idea? We don't have enough doctors to see everyone now that can afford it. What will happen when everyone can 'afford' it?
