I appreciate your integrity in sharing this article and helping the public grasp the pressures put on doctors to almost be clairvoyant, given an absurd fifteen minute maximum to do an accurate diagnosis on a patient. Physicians are putting their medical license, health and personal lives on the line to work in 80hr.+ sweatshop conditions. Hospital CEOs make million dollar salaries by cracking more product and generate revenue from understaffed doctors. Doctors are brilliant people that are bullied into not showing weakness, tolerate the indignities of top-down directives from health executives who themselves are often non-physicians. We deceive ourselves into believing that doctors are all given the time and resources to provide the medical care they want to give their patients. I am grateful for humans that head their calling to take the Hippocratic Oath.

So sad 😭 physicians work soooo hard

I think Doctors tend to over charge insurance companies because they only end up paying 1/2

I agree 100% can't yell u how many times our doctors rush through your 4 min appt yet they dictate a full head to toe exam. When they never went pass the entrance of the door! Love u doctor!!

Everyone lies sometimes.

Hey Doctor, can you look at my recent Ultrasound report and let me know if I have cancer?

As a scribe, I see some of these a very concerning amount. When I clicked on the video, I actually predicted some of them. 😅

Note on work hours. Emergency med is the only specialty that has a 60hr work week limit. Due to the intensity of the work. I typically work 40hrs a week on average as an EM resident.

MDs, DOs, PAs, and NPs please, please, please! Stop telling patients that MRIs take 10-15 minutes! When I tell them their C/T/L Spine w+w/o contrast exam is going to take 2 hours or longer they lose their minds. Either learn the difference between CT and MRI or stop outright lying.

Coding and billing is EVERYTHING!! Hire a specialist if you have to!! Will keep your pts happy and ensure optimal reimbursement as a practitioner!!

I’m a CT Tech and work closely with ER Drs, General Surgeons, and other Drs. This whole article is pretty spot on. Drs speak so confidently about a topic without knowing the answers, especially the young ones with egos. A lot of ER Drs, PAs and NPs order exams for patients that don’t need a CT, or they put dumb reasons for why the exams are needed.

@Dr Cellini. I believe the greatest lie MDs and nurses are saying is that the COVID jabs are safe. Now I'm an RN of 28 years and know the carnage they've done. Shame on you if you're advocating their safety, and not doing your due diligence to do your homework on this poison.

How could you not see a death certificate …surely in radiology you have done MICU, SICU, and even general ward stuff.

And as they lie to try to contort the messed up expectations and system into something functioning, they perpetuate these unreasonable expectations and messed up system. If everyone said "no, that doesn't work" then it could actually be addressed.
Even in an office job with offices all over the county- they come out with a new ask, we try and there isn't enough time or we don't get the results wanted, nobody wants to be the one who fails so everybody fudges the numbers, the management remains clueless that it's not a reasonable expectation. If we could be brave enough to be honest we could fix these things.

Once, I had a large cyst the size of an egg removed from near my spine in the hospital. The patient next to me had a mastectomy. Later, I learned our medical records were switched! She was on Medicaid, which pays less than Medicare/Medicaid, which was my insurance. It took 3 – 4 visits to billing at the hospital to get it straightened out, but practically forever at the surgeon's office! I kept at it until the surgeon's office straightened it out (with the help of the Medicare/Medicaid fraud department) because I did not want misinformation in my medical records and it wasn't fair to the taxpayer. Thank G_D I had that conversation with the patient next door!

Thanks for your insight.

The thing about mental health is just horrible!!

Our medical system is so disturbing. There is no oversight for corruption or inadequate physicians. Patients are left to investigate their doctor’s backgrounds and hope he can be trusted. They are not Gods! Patients need to be diligent and get involved in their care.

Blunt, honest observations from a true healer who cares for patients and mistreated, overworked resident doctors pushed to mental illness by lack of sleep and stress in an exploitative healthcare system. While she calls out doctor greed in upcoding, please see Glaucomflecken's video, Happy Bonus Day, about United Healthcare CEO who made $140 million in 2021. The video highlights his $12 million bonus. US healthcare needs to change. US needs to switch to Japan's universal healthcare (since 1961), with all non-profit health insurance companies, non-profit doctors' offices and non-profit hospitals. No pre-authorizations by insurance companies, no claims denied. The price of every procedure, drug and hospital stay is negotiated every two years between five doctors from Japanese Medical Association and Japanese Health Ministry. That price is binding for the whole country. Rates are low, but doctors see many patients and make upper middle income. Thousands of non-profit health insurance companies, all billing and payment thru a centralized government agency. Emphasis on primary care. Best result in the world: oldest longevity, very low infant mortality rates. Patients pay 30% co-pay on doctors procedures up to a low maximum, so there are no medical bankruptcies. Children and poor elderly pay a lower co-pay. All fee-for-service for doctor visits, per day rates for hospital stay based on diagnosis. 2/3 of doctors graduate from public medical schools which is six years after high school at a cost of $35,000 total. Free our doctors from immoral medical school debt average of $200,000. US healthcare system needs massive overhaul. Emphasis on patients, then providers. Stop prioritizing for-profit health insurance companies, price-gouging pharmaceutical companies, and large hospital chains with their overpaid administrators.

Omg…"upcoding" explains why my nephrologist mentioned discussing chronic kidney disease that he has never mentioned with me…I messaged him and was like, "Uh…doc, wtf?" (Not exact words obviously) Oh, he never explained himself btw.

More related to the Podcast, but we need a video on Pain. So Y’all talked about Fentanyl issues, but is it related to doctors not prescribing pain medication. You said you do not prescribe opioids to young patients. Don’t know statistics but bet their is a issue with Doctors not treating pain and overdose with Fentanyl. Inform us.

It's utterly incomprehensible that people who are making life & death decisions are being forced into a model that makes them so sleep deprived that they can't tell left from right.

9:11 – Gender reassignment surgery is never necessary.

That's an interesting problem. You're being taught ethics are a big concern, but when you get into practice it's like "SCREW THAT".

I'd rather see a Dr ON the needed mental health meds than see a Dr who needs meds but isn't getting them.

So that explains why my doctor always says "Let me just do a physical exam real quick", pats my stomach and then says "Ok, see ya in 6 months". Literally ridiculous and I still don't understand how anyone can be a doctor and have a conscience. No offense. I've known some AMAZING docs, some average docs and some scary, heartless, greedy monsters that actually gave me nightmares. All types I guess. The saddest thing is when the amazing doctor starts to get burnt out, the light inside them dims and they almost become robotic. And the greedy monsters are just fine and dandy because they only care about money. As long as they are making it, everything is daisies.

I feel so suffocated here. The American nightmare. All or nothing game.

How do they expect people to be productive and produce good results in a toxic environment of Covid and climate change? While the rich hoard the wealth. You get what you give. I'm not surprised. You are a product of your environment.

it gets pretty bad when doctors want help you. I have chronic pancreatitis even if I go to the hospital they want even admit me because I don't have insurance. I've been in the hospital 8 times last year.

In the past, Duke residents were on call every other night and did not get the next day off. They were then told that the problem with every other night call was that the resident was missing half the cases! Even though there are rules in place, the mentality still prevails.

ER doc just passing by ! STAY SAFE ALL !!!

💯💯💯

Some Drs lie and gas-light, lie on a patient, why, always cya, because they want to, mi?

A golf vlog would be a cool video

The mental health conditions is very sad… police and firefighters face the same issue.
