Default Perhaps the most useful question a doctor can ask a patient


http://www.drbriffa.com/2012/07/02/p...ask-a-patient/

"I was interested to read the column of Dr Des Spence (a British
general practitioner/family physician) in this week’s British Medical
Journal [1]. He has chosen this week to lament the fact that modern
medical practice has become more 'tyrannical, hierarchical,
controlled, intolerant, and dogmatic.' There is pressure on doctors to
‘follow the evidence’ even though the evidence may be deeply flawed
and biased due to considerable conflicts of interest. Another concern
is the fact that doctors are remunerated for doing certain things,
which can make it difficult for them to take a truly objective stance
of some of what they do."

Submitted without comment because...well, because I can.
