MagicalDoctors

maybe, it's just me-that TV advertising now consist mainly of pharmaceutical ads--channels are being funded by the Big3 pharm companies. if you have depression, rheumatoid arthritis, boneLoss, constipation drug companies have TheDrug for you. i noticed this trend recently when i went to a "specialist" i put this in quotes as the man did no physical exam & went with old data. he was so certain of his prognosis that he didn't feel the "need" to do what is referred to by actual specialists& doctors as a "work-up."

a work-up means that the a physical exam is done, & or tests to pinpoint the cause of why you're seeing an actual specialist. i will refer to him by what a nurse i know called him-TheMagicalDoctor doesn't get his hands dirty(that's soo old school.) he/she will usually be in bed with one of the three pharmaceutical company reps. these reps are also responsible for increasing number of people with painKiller addictions;

such as vicodin & the distribution of pharmaceutical drugs in high schools, colleges & the ever so helpful internet & pharmParties-where prescriptions are passed around like m&m's.. magical doctors can be anything from your basic dermatologist(they by my experience are one of the most gold lined wallets.)i encountered a few basic physicians;one who was an internist @ yaleMedicalcenter who told me to deal when i had an adverse reaction to a drug she had written a script for.

or the few therapists who i have seen over the last decade who attempted to push drugs to keep me coming to see them longer; one in particular pushed lithium on me when my symptoms didn't warrant it. this practice is common& widely spread. physicians reliability of a niceKickBack usually of cash or deposit for patiences they where able to convince needed the drug. magicalDoctors usually have pens laying about their offices; sometimes the brazen will hang posters of the body this WunderKind drug solves; from the reps of course-Why?

it's cheaper than buying a Poster actual without the Nice Logo @ the bottom. their wallets are padded by getting people "hooked" on a prescription. in my case he automatically included 2 refills for a drug that runs $150Per-month; & which my insurance company would cover half of. i won't be pickingUp my prescription-& am in the process of calling my insurance company asking them to not pay him.

magicalDoctors recently cried foul nationally over malPractice insurance in several states. if you got your pocket lined with a few thousand bucks per-month&patiences cried foul & sued for malPractice. these MagicalDoctors deserve their highInsurance costs being incompetent should come with a price.
