there literally aren’t any family medicine doctor jokes because all they do is provide excellent, comprehensive care to the whole world and take a lesser salary to do so 🥺
medicine is basically just giving people fluid and getting fluid out of them, and then taking pictures with expensive machines to see if the fluid is there or not
pro tip : if you are going to try and use research to back up your points, read more than the title of the study.
like at least read the abstract and make sure the sample size is more than the author and their imaginary friends
So I think I understand internal medicine. You have to figure out how much fluid is in the body, then you argue with people from different specialties about how much fluid is in the body, then you do an echo, then you add or remove fluid, sometimes both, then discharge.

When I ask about family history, and the patient tells me one or both parents have died, I always pause to say, “I’m sorry to hear.”
You know, like a human might do.
@AmericanAir It would be better in future if you just didn’t reply, rather than imply I don’t know how to use a computer and already try both those things and every other site I am on works perfectly, but thanks.
