The same morons who are like "If a doctor is bad, no one will patronize them." Have they considered how much information is required to determine if a doctor is bad? That it's ex post facto? Cretins
I've always considered 'Western medicine' (a silly concept to be honest though) to be a separate entity from 'American medicine', because it's our medicine that gave us chiropractors and John Brinkley.
Chiropractors are still around despite there being no medical evidence of its efficacy and has potentially harmful effects for people with slipped discs, and John Brinkley operated for about 20 years and ran several hospitals.
Ultimately there's lots of unintelligent people who fall for this stuff all the time, and even though they're republicans they still deserve proper healthcare from a real doctor.
Okay re: Chiropractors, is that 100% verified or is there still debate? I thought this was common knowledge but then every doofus in my office started seeing chiropractors and it made me doubt myself a little.
There's probably lots of debate regarding it, but I can certainly tell you what my colleague's doctor told him; my colleague has a slipped disc that if it gets worse, could potentially paralyze him from the neck down. He asked his doctor if he should see a chiropractor and the doctor told him there's a 33% chance it'll do nothing, a 33% chance his condition will improve, and a 33% chance it'll get worse.
Chiropractors however are not medical doctors, and as far as I'm concerned that's where it stops. They can get a degree after studying aspects of the body like musculature and ligaments, but I wouldn't risk my health going to one.
100% bullshit outside maybe, maybe helping with muscular pain.
That said, many Chiropractors are actually competent mainstream physical therapists in technique who realised they could save hundreds of thousands of dollars by becoming chiropractors instead. Good luck finding which ones those are.
