@PRICILLABR93869 Based on their argument that they are being paid less to practice medicine, they should be sued for practicing medicine without a license.
Met the amazing Orthopedic surgeon turned shoe designer, Dr. Taryn Rose @realtarynrose today. She is intelligent, kind, & I can’t wait to get my first pair of @enrico_cuini footwear. 👠👡👢

Data shows non physician providers cost the health care system more (more tests, poorer referrals, etc.), do not increase access (work in same populated areas and avoid the same areas others do), and lead to worse outcomes (unless you look at DNP lead sham studies)
Hospitals + clinics forcing patients on to nonphysician providers to cut corners + build profits are immoral
Glad @NPR is picking this up

2)To the public:
-You have the right to request a physician.
-You have the right to REFUSE consent to being treated by anyone other than a physician.
-No HCW can touch or treat you w/o your consent. You have a voice. Use it.
