DOCTORS are NOT Smart

Right. Because I certainly wasn't being sarcastic.

Unreal.

But still very immature.
Grammar won´t help you there.

I have come to realize that, indeed, a great many medical doctors are not particularly intelligent.

Like most every institution, the practice has been massively corrupted, too.

Outside of prescription and surgery, the average person is better off to tend to his own health matters.

This is the real issue. They have to operate within a system that is heavily skewed toward certain treatments and they can lose their career if they get out of line.

This.

Covid experts taught us never to read about a subject unless we are involved in that subject professionally.

I buy whatever car my car dealer tells me. He's the expert. Only idiots take it upon themselves to research. Who told you you could read, peasant? 

Good point.

Medical Doctors are CLEARLY idiots.

We should all live like we did BEFORE we had modern medicine.

Increases in life expectancy are primarily due to lower infant mortality.

Stellar reading comprehension, stupid.

Becoming a doctor requires a high degree of self-discipline and the ability to memorize a large amount of information.

No.

Mostly due to vaccines and antibiotics.

We’re sure lucky COVID happened now and not 200 years ago. Some people don’t appreciate that though.

🙁

A chemist on the other hand just has to be good at finding things on a shelf...

Do your own research and don't blindly follow a doctor's advices.

Seeing a doctor at times is necessary. You can't perform an echocardiogram yourself. I get labs done 3/4 times a year through Life Extension. I have been reading labs for well over 20 yrs. If I see an issue on them I know the changes that need to be made. Doctors for me are a last resort or for routine diagnostic testing. I don't trust anyone including doctors.

So does being an engineer.

Intelligence and being educated are too completely different things.

I've worked in engineering my entire career and have a masters in engineering.

I learned 10 times the information my first 5 years at the job than in school.

Alot of engineers are stupid too, but i find engineers to be the most logical and levelheaded people on the planet.

I've been mis-diagnosed many times by doctors.

I've never engineered anything that failed and spent most of my career in forensic evaluations. My job is to prove what failed, why and whose fault it is.

But they are completely different fields.

I do not trust doctors, i know plenty of them that are idiots.

My ex had a PhD and struggled to understand how to put air in a car tire.

I always get a second opinion on anything serious.

And my younger brother worked for an insurance company that handled malpractice claims.

It's insane how many doctors have dozens of claims due to simple mistakes, usually because they don't take time to research properly and diagnose based on statistics.
