To my specialist colleagues,
Please plz plz don’t order labs/imaging and then tell patients to “just follow-up with your primary care doctor to discuss.”
He who doth order, doth interpret and communicate to patient. That’s the rule 🤝🤗
Let me just state the obvious, in case anyone is confused:
You do not attack a grieving widow or widower.
Ever.
Period.
Full fucking stop.
And if you need people to explain this to you, you need new people.
"Do not be saddened if people remember you only when they need you. Feel the privilege of being like a candle that comes to their mind in their darkest moments."
Saint Nectarios of Aegina
Conservatives say that guns are for sport, hunting, and self defense because that’s what they use them for.
Liberals say that guns are for killing people because that’s what they use them for.
How does our country move forward?
How do we move forward when judges let criminals back on the streets? Where women on trains are murdered in plain sight? Where conservatives have assassination attempts on our lives?
Where do we go from here?
May God have mercy on us.
Seriously wondering what the point of my having a medical license is if the insurance companies have rigid preauth guidelines that dictate what they'll approve, peer to peer discussions w non-peers telling me why my medical judgment isn't enough and AI bots parse medical records looking for any signs of procedural non compliance to initiate denials of care.
@EPotterMD I’m just a family practice PA x35 years and honestly I’m ready to hang it up. The humble hard-working patients can’t get what they need-while the entitled, demanding, even threatening ones- seem to get it all. People have absolutely no idea. God bless you Dr. Potter
