@broadwaybabyto US primary care PA here. I am having trouble understanding why couldn’t get into palliative care.
Anecdotally, where I practice it is impossible to access palliative care because there are simply not enough palliative practices. A grossly underutilized and underfunded resource
And FYI- half of the patients supplements came from protocols touted by Mark Hyman (@ClevelandClinic) David Sinclair (@Harvard) & Andrew Huberman (@StanfordMed). So no, academia is not the pillar of evidence based medicine, patients are sadly left to sort out fact vs fiction.
Today was my career record for de-prescribing supplements: lovely new patient with CAD taking a total of 132 supplements per day(yes you read that right!) thanks to all of the “longevity” experts who love a grift. We replaced them all with $4 rosuvastatin. Wellness is unwell.
@AshleyGWinter Rural PCP here. Just wanna say your content here has given me so much (evidence based!) insight that’s often contradictory to what I was taught as a generalist. Also so much good language to use with patients. Thanks!
The unbelievable irony of an elderly patient’s insurance company refusing to cover Myrbetriq and only covers anticholinergics and then sends you a Healthy & Safety notification about anticholinergics in the elderly after it’s prescribed.
hypothetically,
if I was going to nominate a film about a badger,
starring a badger,
called "Badger,"
for best picture...
I would also nominate the badger, right?
Good morning ☀️
This is a reminder that coming after doctors with statements about them being “paid by pharma” is just lazy, and frankly, boring 🥱
Instead, come after us with something unique and original!
“How many divorces are you on?”
“You should be seeing patients instead of tweeting!”
“Racked up huge student debt just to get replaced by AI?”
Please feel free to add some more unique insults! Share some of your greatest hits :)
