IMO one of the biggest red flags regarding a doctor is when he/she either lies to you or pressures you into a medical treatment. My mother used to live in the same multi-family-home as my grand mother for the last years of my grandmother. In the town they both were living in they had two doctors: One who had a bit of an alternative streak (although he tried to convince me to get the covid shot when I was there) and another one who did not have that streak. For reasons I do not know my grandmother ended up with the second as her doctor. One day he came to the apartment of my grandmother (the whole story to me sounded very odd). My mother by chance was with my grandmother. The doctor said he had a flu-shot for my grandmother. My grandmothers said she did not want the flu-shot to which the doctor replied, that he "was not sure, whether my grandmother could refuse it". IMO this sentence alone would prompt me to change my doctor.

Did you ever read this article: https://amidwesterndoctor.substack.com/p/why-do-doctors-push-dangerous-pharmaceuticals
Yes, I just find the behaviour I have described totally unacceptable because I am not of the opinion that the end justifies the means and I abhor lies
😱 Carolin, Did grandma acquiesce?
I am not sure. I do not think so, because my mother happened to be there and she is no fan of the flu shot either
