Years ago, I read a book called "How Doctors Think". I was struck by its finding of how quickly a physician makes up his mind after asking a patient "tell me why you're here." In as little as 17 or 18 seconds, the doctor has interrupted the patient, and has one or two possibilities firmly in mind. He basically tunes out anything the patient says subsequently that might change his diagnosis.
I've seen this repeatedly with both my primary physician, and the pediatrician we saw when my children were young. My doctor is wrong about half the time when he gives me a diagnosis. For example, the "reflux" he diagnosed early in my first pregnancy was more likely a gallbladder issue. He diagnosed sudden-onset knee pain 10 years later as arthritis, since an MRI supposedly showed no meniscus tear or other damage; I had an inflamed medial plica and an old, long-asymptomatic horizontal-cleavage lateral meniscus tear, easily found by the orthopod I referred myself to the next week.
When my son fell off the growth chart at 4 years old, the pediatrician insisted it was fine, variously invoking "you and your husband aren't tall" (we're average height), and "he's just a late bloomer" for 5 years, until I put my foot down and insisted on the endocrinologist referral. My son had growth hormone deficiency, and responded beautifully to GH therapy. When my son was 12 and complaining of knee pain, the pediatrician blew it off as Osgood-Schlatter's due to rapid growth, despite none of the symptoms matching. (Coincidentally also an inflamed plica, from a known injury.)
This is a very important point I forgot to mention and a consequence of the fact doctors have so little time to spend with patients in the first place but are nonetheless expected to know "everything." I will pin it and include it in the next open thread.
Part of this problem is managed care, which dictates a doctor spends 11.3 minutes with each patient.
They've also been whittling away all the solo practitioners, so by the time Covid came by, too many were afraid of losing their jobs - because they got threatened by their bosses to NOT prescribe ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine.
Then they incentivized their practices. They paid doctors a huge bonus for the highest percentage of vaxxed patients they could get- so much so that if 70% of a family practitioner's patients had the vax in the last quarter of 2021, they got a $240,000 bonus. For the quarter.
And the list goes on...
Doctors were never taught how to heal. They either had the gift and knew it came from God, or they lost their spirituality. The love of money was more important than people.
I don't know how else to explain it. And I apologize for that, for them. They will have their day before God the Creator.
I have to laugh. . . Osgood-Schlatter's. . . had both knees in casts when in grade school for six weeks each. That, and the long weak legged recovery for 4 more weeks just sucked.
Now, I can't help but wonder did I just have an inflamed plica?! I will just cry instead.
The big problem, doctor, is that doctors are taught to be close-minded in medical school. The kind of people who become doctors are trained all the way, from being one of the best students in high school to under grad to medical school. They are trained to be good students, which is to say, to memorize and follow protocols and learn and regurgitate them.
Then you add the fact that Big Pharma guides medical school education curriculums.
And everything that is old and proven does not serve Big Pharma, so they don’t teach it. Only new and very expensive treatment modalities are taught. Causes are never addressed.
The result are rule following close minded but very smart people. As you wrote yourself, witness how many blindly followed, and still follow, what they are told about the “vaccine”.
They just do what they are told. It’s very sad. Fortunately there are counter movements to this, although faint and relatively small.
Good doctors are so hard to find, like needles in haystacks. All we can do is find someone who may be open enough to help us in some way, but it is not likely.
Rest assured there are doctors who knew there was something wrong, and refused to follow the money. Instead, we stood on a hill, even if that meant standing alone.
I stood in front of Newsom’s capital building steps. I petitioned him to veto AB 2098. Instead of being helpful as a Governor, he approved the bill and within 10 days, the Medical Board of California put out their first request for me to surrender my license.
That request turned into multiple requests that eventually resulted in them coming to my house and demanding I submit 3 medical records - without patient permission. I refused.
I started a Private Member Association (PMA) and operate under private contracts.
All of us in the medical freedom movement have lost something to do what is right. And we wouldn’t change a thing.
Thank you ~ All my pleasure! I want everyone to know that they didn't bribe all of us. We stood our ground and refused to give in. We may have lost everything that the world holds dear, some of us living in a motor home or staying with friends. We may have had the medical board show up to our office, or our house. Or both.
But we decided what was right and what was wrong. And we chose to stay in the light.
Make no mistake ~ this was a war of money and jobs. But the biggest war was spiritual ~ keeping the Hippocratic oath, doing no harm, and asking God to leas and guide us through the power of the Holy Spirit.
It was a matter of spiritual life or death. Thank you for letting me express myself here:) and wishing you all blessings in all your wonderful writings!
Thank you Dr Aranda for being brave. We need our medical professionals to use their God given talents for the good of their patients and not so much for their reimbursement rates... I applaud you ( and I pay my physician out of pocket for his services also)
It's sometimes scary to be brave, because it makes each step feel like a walk down a dark hallway. To be sure, I have learned to answer to God, and not man. When we do that, then it doesn't matter what they do to me, or what power I may lose. The only thing that matters is that all is well with my soul, before God.
You are a genuine human being and work for our creator / the higher power / God and not the fake man made authorities that people worship . That removes the fear factor and allows you to do the “ right” thing . Unfortunately so Many doctors over the last 3 years especially have been cowards, refuse to discuss anything outside their comfort zone . I cannot even look them in the eye .. I feel no respect for them . You are a true doctor standing for purity which is what the white coat is supposed to be indicative off . You will remain on the right side of history. People are waking up . We are in a spiritual war. Thank you dear .
Thank you so much. I did not come from an easy life, but Our Father God gave me everything, including the gift of healing, and I've known it for a long time. My experience is unique in that I had a Near-Death Experience (NDE). My soul has been on a journey for some time, part of it spent disabled and bedridden from a traumatic brain injury, dysautonomia/POTS, mast cell activation factor (MCAS), and more, for twelve years. Looking at the ceiling. So now I know what it feels like to be treated from the patient side of the drapes, and like we have all learned for ourselves, I can go through anything.
While in the beginning I was too weak to fight, after No More Tears (just out on Amazon 3 days ago) comes The REbel PAtient as soon as I finish it - I go from barely existing to fighting and not taking any nonsense as a patient. The white coat deserves a Substack itself, and I now wear a tribal skirt with a purple ribbon to signify healing, and ribbons the color of all human races: red, white, black, and yellow. The white coat is stiff, which doctor's shouldn't be with their patients, resembles purity but is not pure, and is a false god. Don't let anyone take away your health. Be in charge.
I wouldn't like to judge those who haven't found the courage that Dr Aranda has until I've walked in their shoes. The pressures of all kinds must have been very difficult to resist, and who knows what inner turmoil some must be suffering :( That, however, is not to excuse their action/inaction.
The biggest pressure was money. Doctors with loans, big houses, kids in college. They didn't want to lose their jobs, as most of them work for Big Rockefeller Medicine, not in solo practice, because they have been closing practices for years, absorbing doctors into HMOs. Most medical freedom doctors, like me, are independent.
Rather than succumb to the medical board, I sold my house and cars, moved out of state and live in a nice little home with two storage spaces. Next on my list is to get rid of everything in storage, minimize, and prepare for food shortages by starting a co-op in my neighborhood.
I want to stop grocery shopping and grow lots of my own fruits/veges, plus get meat directly from a farmer. No more Amazon or Walmart. Use a credit card that doesn't go through big banking.
All this makes me grateful for the decisions I made, because I got out of the rat-race and see much more of the proper preparations that need to be made for the future.
Fantastic, thank you, so sorry you had to go through all this. Private contracts are the way to go. Unfortunately so many people see themselves as passive recipients of medical care and are not interested in being active in their own care, and they will go along with whatever Medicare or their HMO gives them.
I’m happy to know of a few doctors such as yourself who are exceptions, and their exceptional patients!
Thank you... it was stressful, but I just went through each day on its own. After being bedridden for 12 years with POTS, no one can hurt me more than I've already been hurt. Now I love to help patients get cured and heal from the inside out.
God bless you, Margaret! I know there are many GOOD doctors, but we never see you on TV. Let me tell you, TV experts, TV doctors, TV this and TV that are 99% BS! Ah, and CONSENSUS. Another a-ma-zing concept. CON-CENSUS!
Right? Even in the medical freedom movement, I don't have a big face out there. I've been busy writing books for the public, and am readying for my newest Guidebook to COVID Care that includes Medical Directives and Hospital Hostage relief from situation.
It's really hard to describe what the medical schooling process is like unless you've been through it. To some extent I sympathize with the rigor of it because there are so, so, so many things doctors cannot mess up or get wrong but it also really remolds the minds of the people who go through it.
Just amazing, you really are a wonderful doctor and so openminded and non judgemental. so valuable, many thanks you give of your time so generously....amen ...greetings from Australia
Very glad I have a very good alt doc who has saved me from so many harms.. grateful to be unvaccinated and free
“…..many of the prominent COVID dissidents stated that their spiritual faith was the most important thing to them in life, and by the rules of their faith they could not turn a blind eye to what was happening during the pandemic—even if they had to suffer for doing so.”
The mRNA experimental gene therapy jab did exactly what it was intended to do, as it set the stage for future profitable deleterious "computer generated" vaccines that'll be manufactured spontaneously and might be tested if you're lucky on eight blind mice before it's injected into billions.
Btw, try seeing a doctor in a hospital, or even in a private practice as you're usually shuffled off to a nurse practitioner. I'm not denegrating nurses, however, they shouldn't be substituted for cardiologists or neurologists. These days physicians avoid contact with patients or with those who represent them. I guess, they're too busy performing unnecessary surgeries.
Sort of on topic but I am seeing this new trend when you take your pet to the Vet you don't see the vet anymore. A vet tech comes in and after discussion takes your pet away for the Vet to see. At least I think so. Idk bc I'm left sitting in the exam room. This has happened w last 3 new Vets, I don't like it.
You do go into an exam room but the Vet doesn't come in a Vet tech does and then takes pet out to another room to see Vet. Seems to be the new thing. I was seeing another Vet before moving away for many yrs. An older man who practiced alone out of his home so there was none of this going on. When I moved 2 yrs ago I was in for a surprise.
I wouldn't like that either as you never "directly" interact with the vet. What you're describing must be geographically specific to your area. I'm not a pet owner, but practically everyone in my neighborhood is and I haven't heard them complaining about that particular issue.
Exactly. No, I had it happen where I used to live also, another state. I finally did go to a very popular local vet before I moved and he wasn't like that but he was so popular that there was always a wait even w an appt.
For understandable reasons, I can't take patients through here, so I'm trying to do the next best thing and make the information I know available to everyone.
Maybe a short cut to find a different thinking gp is to be able to know if they got the covid mrna vax or not, BUT how would we ever know, since that decision has also been politicized. I just don't go to a dr anymore. It is safer.
me neither. Only for emergency like deep cuts. No maintenance, no vaccines, and it works.
Besides, how can you even hope to find anything about the worth of a doctor? Look on the internet. There is virtually NOTHING out there to allow one to judge a doctors veracity, success in treatment, zip.
One resource which may be helpful is https://covid19criticalcare.com/providers/ - it's a list of providers which supposedly know and adhere to FLCCC's protocols. There may be a few gems from that list

Most of this current catastrophe known as 'modern medicine' can be directly traced to the creation of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1913, leading to the complete takeover of all medical education and research funding. The globalist agenda launched in earnest that year.
“1913 wasn’t a very good year. 1913 gave us the Federal Reserve System, the Income Tax, the 16th Amendment, and the IRS.” ~ Congressman Ron Paul COINCIDENCE??
* Murder by Injection: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America *
by Eustace Clarence Mullins
The present work, the result of some forty years of investigative research, is a logical progression from my previous books: the exposé of the international control of monetary issue and banking practices in the United States; a later work revealing the secret network of organizations through which these alien forces wield political power-the secret committees, foundations, and political parties through which their hidden plans are implemented; and now; to the most vital issue of all, the manner in which these depredations affect the daily lives and health of American citizens.
Despite the great power of the hidden rulers, I found that only one group has the power to issue life or death sentences to any American-our nation's physicians. I discovered that these physicians, despite their great power, were themselves subjected to very strict controls over every aspect of their professional lives. These controls, surprisingly enough, were not wielded by any state or federal agency, although almost every other aspect of American life is now under the absolute control of the bureaucracy. The physicians have their own autocracy, a private trade association, the American Medical Association.
This group, which is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, had gradually built up its power until it assumed total control over medical schools and the accreditation of physicians. The trail of these manipulators led me straight to the same lairs of the international conspirators whom I had exposed in previous books. I knew that they had already looted America, reduced its military power to a dangerously low level, and imposed bureaucratic controls on every American. I now discovered that their conspiracies also directly affected the health of every American.
This conspiracy has resulted in a documented decline in the health of our citizens. We now rank far down the list of civilized nations in infant mortality and other significant medical statistics. I was able to document the shocking record of these cold-blooded tycoons who not only plan and carry out famines, economic depressions, revolutions and wars, but who also find their greatest profits in their manipulations of our medical care. The cynicism and malice of these conspirators is something beyond the imagination of most Americans. They deliberately mulct our people of millions of dollars each year through ''charitable'' organizations and then use these same organizations as key groups to bolster their Medical Monopoly.
Fear and intimidation are the basic techniques by which the conspirators maintain their control over all aspects of our health care, as they ruthlessly crush any competitor who challenges their profits. As in other aspects of their ''behavioural control'' over the American people, their most constantly used weapon against us is their employment of federal agents and federal agencies to carry out their intrigues. The proof of this operation may be the most disturbing revelation of my work.
Mullins was dispensing 'red pills' long before Morpheus came onto the scene and lured Neo into the labyrinthian underworld of The Matrix (aka 3D artificial reality).
Think innovatively and present information to the patient as to why you think this mix will work. Most of theee patients are as or more educated than most docs are on their condition.
It boils down to bias medical education and conforming to rules to minimize medical malpractice which is inherent in treating humans who have been impacted negatively in so many ways via factory processed foods, detrimental lifestyle decisions and environmental issues. Today, I learned that we are no longer tracking "adverse events' in medical research. They are now called "off target" events. The push to inject just keeps being ramped up!
How can we survive if humanity is now considered lab rats by the medicine man? Case in point. Crispr/Vertex announced today that after marketing their new DNA/injection sickle cell anemia drug, they can then evaluate the "off target" events. This was approved by the FDA. No longer are adverse events called by their true name. Now they are "off target" events. Initial "off target" events are at 10.1% and they have a green light to move forward. RNA injections are in the same classification and the harm created and will be created is being totally ignored. The root cause I have discovered is "regulatory capture" here and across the globe. Stop it and we the people are back in charge. Until then we are traveling down the wrong roads in society. Here is a full explanation of "regulatory capture". When the Republican lead legislation that gave corporations the same rights as we as individuals in the US, was the height of regulatory capture. Corporations now have control over individual rights with their money power! Well expressed with the covid con.
Your article reminded me of the time I took my teenage son to the doctor because he had hurt his foot playing some sport or at least that is what he told me. Because of the insurance I had to take him to a pediatrician’s office. They checked out his foot and said that I would have to take him to the local hospital to get an xray because they didn’t do that at their office. (That was going to be very expensive and time consuming for me). But they also said that it looks like he has gout. That was it for me. I just left and I remember her saying “Well you can’t rule it out”. I said “Well I can rule it out.” It’s funny now but I remember how annoyed I was back then. That is a great article. Thank you for spelling it out in a comprehension manner.
Hello! I just got your email. You are welcome to re-use anything on here. Only exception is the content that is private on here for paid subscribers. I made that private because for one reason or another I didn't want it anywhere on the internet, but that is only 5% of what I post.
About 50 years ago I was on track to become a Physician. Good grades in college, several years of experience in Healthcare settings as an RN, very high results on the MEDCAT exam, ect.
Then my wife was diagnosed with Chronic Myleocytic Leukemia and given about 5 years to live.
At first, we talked about my going on and pursuing my dream but it became apparent that she would likely not survive long enough for me to make that dream a reality.
She was under treatment by a team of Hematologists at a very highly recognized Medical Center in the US. After a frank discussion about the future we were facing, it was decided that I would apply for admission to a Nurse Anesthesia Program and if accepted, I would pursue that avenue instead of Medicine. If accepted, the total time I would achieve that goal in 3 years instead of 5 more years of education plus a residency of 3 or more years.
I was accepted to the first Anesthesia Program I applied too. A program in a large Metro area on the coast with affiliations that allowed me to learn as many Regional Anesthetic Techniques as I wanted to learn. It was a very good program and some 3 years later I was one of 4 CRNA's in a hospital based practice in a town on the US West Coast.
One Regional Technique I had learned was how to do Lumbar Sympathetic Blocks. These blocks are fairly straight forward, easy to do and had been one Regional Technique used for pain relief during Labor that was combined with the OB residents doing a Pudental Block once the Baby's head approached a Peritoneal 0 to +1 stage.
In the Surgeon's Lounge at this west coast hospital I overheard the Chief of Surgery and another Surgeon discussing a patient who had extreme pain in her right foot on weight bearing. They were considering sending her to the Medical School Center about 100 miles away for diagnosis. I asked if they were needing a diagnostic block to see if she had Lumbar Sympathetic Dystrophy? They answered, Yes and I told them I knew how to do that block.
One surgeon was very doubtful but the Chief of Surgery asked me how I learned that block and I told him. I was allowed to go visit the patient, who was in the hospital, and explain the block, the risks and benefits of it and obtained Informed Consent to do it the next morning.
One of the Operating rooms was vacant the next morning so an OR Nurse, both Surgeons, the patient, a mid 50's year old Scottish Female Immigrant and I all came to that OR at 8 am.
I had the patient sit up on one edge of the OR Table, with the RN supporting her, both Surgeons watching as i did the block. That part of the procedure took around 5 minutes. Then I said we are going to wait for about 15 minutes for the anesthetic agent to work. the patient elected to remain sitting up for that 15 minutes time.
When the 15 minutes was up, I walked in front of her and held out my right hand and said, "Would you be so kind as to let me have the next dance with you?" She hesitated for a moment a moment and then with my help slipped off the edge of the OR Table and gingerly placed her right foot on the floor and put some weight on it and then grabbed me and hugged me with tears running down her face and said "My foot does not hurt!" It was the first time in years she had been able to place full weight on that foot!
She proceeded to dance with me around the OR for several minutes, with tears flowing down her face and multiple "Thank You's". The next day the Surgeon clipped the offending nerves and she went home a few days later a happy patient. The Surgeon never said "Thanks" for me doing the block which allowed him to do the surgery and get reimbursed for it instead of losing a patient to the big Medical Center 100 miles away.
I never did get to go to Medical School. My first wife died of her Leukemia about 3 years later, but I was able to give her a life she would not have had if I'd have gone the Medical School route instead.
Later I remarried, raised 4 children with the help of a fantastic wife, and at the ripe old age of 48 years old graduated from Law School and spent some 12 years helping defend Physicians, specifically Anesthesiologists, in Medical Mal-Practice Law Suits.
As I look back on things, now, I made the right choices given the events in life I faced.
Before Law School I was a Clinical Instructor in an Anesthesiology Residency Program as well as a Classroom Instructor in a Nurse Anesthesia Program.
My wife and I live in, what to us, is one of the most beautiful parts of the US and can look back on a life together that was filled with trials, successes and now enjoy a retirement knowing we made a difference in multiple people's lives over the years.
One element of success I learned was to think about what I would want done if I was the patient and always try to put myself in the patient's shoes and figure out what was needed to make the patient feel cared for and well!
Great story. One of the main pieces of advice I constantly give all my friends in medicine is "choose happiness over making more money" but no matter what I do, they often end up choosing money and being unhappy : (
The docs, like MWD and Dr. Aranda, who truly care to help their patients seem to have a spiritual calling. But we, the patients, have to be seekers as well. Sometimes the answers are simple like taking an herb or probiotic on an empty stomach. I started reading this today before a past client came in and told me the saga of her foot pain and attempts to get free of pain. She hobbled around with "spurs" when she needed surgery for three issues including barely attached Achilles tendon...timely!
Some good tips here and a good reminder on looking for a physician who can actually look into healing and not just following the script. I agree that there are a lot of med students who are silenced early if they question the status quo when they could actually find something that could work.
I vaguely recall some movie back in the 80's/90's where a medical school teacher was dying with Lupus (I think) and when she presented a cocky student with the symptoms his initial response was "see ya, you're gonna die". When he was told it was said prof, he changed his tune/attitude. I think he then actually looked for real/working treatments (without finding one), but the challenge to the conventional thinking was there and resulted in some change. I don't really see that these days. :(
I read the "back pain" article recently and forwarded that on to a friend at church whose wife is going through some horrible back pain with little relief. It sounded almost exactly like her situation - seeing specialists who only knew that one thing to try. We'll see what comes of it, but at least it's a good read. Who knows - he may even read some other articles along the way.
Years ago, I read a book called "How Doctors Think". I was struck by its finding of how quickly a physician makes up his mind after asking a patient "tell me why you're here." In as little as 17 or 18 seconds, the doctor has interrupted the patient, and has one or two possibilities firmly in mind.

I wouldn't like to judge those who haven't found the courage that Dr Aranda has until I've walked in their shoes. The pressures of all kinds must have been very difficult to resist, and who knows what inner turmoil some must be suffering :( That, however, is not to excuse their action/inaction.
The biggest pressure was money. Doctors with loans, big houses, kids in college. They didn't want to lose their jobs, as most of them work for Big Rockefeller Medicine, not in solo practice, because they have been closing practices for years, absorbing doctors into HMOs. Most medical freedom doctors, like me, are independent.
Rather than succumb to the medical board, I sold my house and cars, moved out of state and live in a nice little home with two storage spaces. Next on my list is to get rid of everything in storage, minimize, and prepare for food shortages by starting a co-op in my neighborhood.
I want to stop grocery shopping and grow lots of my own fruits/veges, plus get meat directly from a farmer. No more Amazon or Walmart. Use a credit card that doesn't go through big banking.
All this makes me grateful for the decisions I made, because I got out of the rat-race and see much more of the proper preparations that need to be made for the future.
Fantastic, thank you, so sorry you had to go through all this. Private contracts are the way to go. Unfortunately so many people see themselves as passive recipients of medical care and are not interested in being active in their own care, and they will go along with whatever Medicare or their HMO gives them.
I’m happy to know of a few doctors such as yourself who are exceptions, and their exceptional patients!
Thank you... it was stressful, but I just went through each day on its own. After being bedridden for 12 years with POTS, no one can hurt me more than I've already been hurt. Now I love to help patients get cured and heal from the inside out.
God bless you, Margaret! I know there are many GOOD doctors, but we never see you on TV. Let me tell you, TV experts, TV doctors, TV this and TV that are 99% BS! Ah, and CONSENSUS. Another a-ma-zing concept. CON-CENSUS!
Right? Even in the medical freedom movement, I don't have a big face out there. I've been busy writing books for the public, and am readying for my newest Guidebook to COVID Care that includes Medical Directives and Hospital Hostage relief from situation.
It's really hard to describe what the medical schooling process is like unless you've been through it. To some extent I sympathize with the rigor of it because there are so, so, so many things doctors cannot mess up or get wrong but it also really remolds the minds of the people who go through it.
Yet, many doctors do awful mistakes.
Understandable.
I would submit that current medical schools select for pre-existing close-mindedness, especially nowadays.
Right on!
Just amazing, you really are a wonderful doctor and so openminded and non judgemental. so valuable, many thanks you give of your time so generously....amen ...greetings from Australia
Very glad I have a very good alt doc who has saved me from so many harms.. grateful to be unvaccinated and free
Thank you.
“…..many of the prominent COVID dissidents stated that their spiritual faith was the most important thing to them in life, and by the rules of their faith they could not turn a blind eye to what was happening during the pandemic—even if they had to suffer for doing so.”
Praise the Lord.
The mRNA experimental gene therapy jab did exactly what it was intended to do, as it set the stage for future profitable deleterious "computer generated" vaccines that'll be manufactured spontaneously and might be tested if you're lucky on eight blind mice before it's injected into billions.
Btw, try seeing a doctor in a hospital, or even in a private practice as you're usually shuffled off to a nurse practitioner. I'm not denegrating nurses, however, they shouldn't be substituted for cardiologists or neurologists. These days physicians avoid contact with patients or with those who represent them. I guess, they're too busy performing unnecessary surgeries.
They're too busy seeing as many patients as they can so the hospital and hedge fund that owns them can give them a bonus.
A bonus for malpractice.
Sort of on topic but I am seeing this new trend when you take your pet to the Vet you don't see the vet anymore. A vet tech comes in and after discussion takes your pet away for the Vet to see. At least I think so. Idk bc I'm left sitting in the exam room. This has happened w last 3 new Vets, I don't like it.
I'm surprised they don't let the pet owner into the exam room.
You do go into an exam room but the Vet doesn't come in a Vet tech does and then takes pet out to another room to see Vet. Seems to be the new thing. I was seeing another Vet before moving away for many yrs. An older man who practiced alone out of his home so there was none of this going on. When I moved 2 yrs ago I was in for a surprise.
I wouldn't like that either as you never "directly" interact with the vet. What you're describing must be geographically specific to your area. I'm not a pet owner, but practically everyone in my neighborhood is and I haven't heard them complaining about that particular issue.
Exactly. No, I had it happen where I used to live also, another state. I finally did go to a very popular local vet before I moved and he wasn't like that but he was so popular that there was always a wait even w an appt.
Years ago physcians tended to be more approachable and not such arrogant A-holes.
When can i make an appointment with you?
For understandable reasons, I can't take patients through here, so I'm trying to do the next best thing and make the information I know available to everyone.
Me too
Maybe a short cut to find a different thinking gp is to be able to know if they got the covid mrna vax or not, BUT how would we ever know, since that decision has also been politicized. I just don't go to a dr anymore. It is safer.
me neither. Only for emergency like deep cuts. No maintenance, no vaccines, and it works.
Besides, how can you even hope to find anything about the worth of a doctor? Look on the internet. There is virtually NOTHING out there to allow one to judge a doctors veracity, success in treatment, zip.
One resource which may be helpful is https://covid19criticalcare.com/providers/ - it's a list of providers which supposedly know and adhere to FLCCC's protocols. There may be a few gems from that list
Most of this current catastrophe known as 'modern medicine' can be directly traced to the creation of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1913, leading to the complete takeover of all medical education and research funding. The globalist agenda launched in earnest that year.
“1913 wasn’t a very good year. 1913 gave us the Federal Reserve System, the Income Tax, the 16th Amendment, and the IRS.” ~ Congressman Ron Paul COINCIDENCE??
* Murder by Injection: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America *
by Eustace Clarence Mullins
The present work, the result of some forty years of investigative research, is a logical progression from my previous books: the exposé of the international control of monetary issue and banking practices in the United States; a later work revealing the secret network of organizations through which these alien forces wield political power-the secret committees, foundations, and political parties through which their hidden plans are implemented; and now; to the most vital issue of all, the manner in which these depredations affect the daily lives and health of American citizens.
Despite the great power of the hidden rulers, I found that only one group has the power to issue life or death sentences to any American-our nation's physicians. I discovered that these physicians, despite their great power, were themselves subjected to very strict controls over every aspect of their professional lives. These controls, surprisingly enough, were not wielded by any state or federal agency, although almost every other aspect of American life is now under the absolute control of the bureaucracy. The physicians have their own autocracy, a private trade association, the American Medical Association.
This group, which is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, had gradually built up its power until it assumed total control over medical schools and the accreditation of physicians. The trail of these manipulators led me straight to the same lairs of the international conspirators whom I had exposed in previous books. I knew that they had already looted America, reduced its military power to a dangerously low level, and imposed bureaucratic controls on every American. I now discovered that their conspiracies also directly affected the health of every American.
This conspiracy has resulted in a documented decline in the health of our citizens. We now rank far down the list of civilized nations in infant mortality and other significant medical statistics. I was able to document the shocking record of these cold-blooded tycoons who not only plan and carry out famines, economic depressions, revolutions and wars, but who also find their greatest profits in their manipulations of our medical care. The cynicism and malice of these conspirators is something beyond the imagination of most Americans. They deliberately mulct our people of millions of dollars each year through ''charitable'' organizations and then use these same organizations as key groups to bolster their Medical Monopoly.
Fear and intimidation are the basic techniques by which the conspirators maintain their control over all aspects of our health care, as they ruthlessly crush any competitor who challenges their profits. As in other aspects of their ''behavioural control'' over the American people, their most constantly used weapon against us is their employment of federal agents and federal agencies to carry out their intrigues. The proof of this operation may be the most disturbing revelation of my work.
I read that book not long after it came out.
Mullins was dispensing 'red pills' long before Morpheus came onto the scene and lured Neo into the labyrinthian underworld of The Matrix (aka 3D artificial reality).
Been following those white rabbits ever since!
Think innovatively and present information to the patient as to why you think this mix will work. Most of theee patients are as or more educated than most docs are on their condition.
Which is hard for many more insecure physicians to come to terms with.
It boils down to bias medical education and conforming to rules to minimize medical malpractice which is inherent in treating humans who have been impacted negatively in so many ways via factory processed foods, detrimental lifestyle decisions and environmental issues. Today, I learned that we are no longer tracking "adverse events' in medical research. They are now called "off target" events. The push to inject just keeps being ramped up!
How can we survive if humanity is now considered lab rats by the medicine man? Case in point. Crispr/Vertex announced today that after marketing their new DNA/injection sickle cell anemia drug, they can then evaluate the "off target" events. This was approved by the FDA. No longer are adverse events called by their true name. Now they are "off target" events. Initial "off target" events are at 10.1% and they have a green light to move forward. RNA injections are in the same classification and the harm created and will be created is being totally ignored. The root cause I have discovered is "regulatory capture" here and across the globe. Stop it and we the people are back in charge. Until then we are traveling down the wrong roads in society. Here is a full explanation of "regulatory capture". When the Republican lead legislation that gave corporations the same rights as we as individuals in the US, was the height of regulatory capture. Corporations now have control over individual rights with their money power! Well expressed with the covid con.

As I am sure you know, this doesn't just hold true for medicine.
Totally agree, except it is more deadly in the current medical arena!
Your article reminded me of the time I took my teenage son to the doctor because he had hurt his foot playing some sport or at least that is what he told me. Because of the insurance I had to take him to a pediatrician’s office. They checked out his foot and said that I would have to take him to the local hospital to get an xray because they didn’t do that at their office. (That was going to be very expensive and time consuming for me). But they also said that it looks like he has gout. That was it for me. I just left and I remember her saying “Well you can’t rule it out”. I said “Well I can rule it out.” It’s funny now but I remember how annoyed I was back then. That is a great article. Thank you for spelling it out in a comprehension manner.
I spent decades dealing with a tick bite and its deleterious effect--Lyme
I was first told it was in my head.
I was told it was because I was biking in the wind.
I was told I had MS (and would go blind first).
The damage has been pretty life altering.
The doctor who finally treated me had the powers them that be go after his ability to practice.
It seems helping people as a doctor is not in the business plan.
Hello! I just got your email. You are welcome to re-use anything on here. Only exception is the content that is private on here for paid subscribers. I made that private because for one reason or another I didn't want it anywhere on the internet, but that is only 5% of what I post.
You are a gem. Grateful for you, as are 59,999 other people.
Doc,
About 50 years ago I was on track to become a Physician. Good grades in college, several years of experience in Healthcare settings as an RN, very high results on the MEDCAT exam, ect.
Then my wife was diagnosed with Chronic Myleocytic Leukemia and given about 5 years to live.
At first, we talked about my going on and pursuing my dream but it became apparent that she would likely not survive long enough for me to make that dream a reality.
She was under treatment by a team of Hematologists at a very highly recognized Medical Center in the US. After a frank discussion about the future we were facing, it was decided that I would apply for admission to a Nurse Anesthesia Program and if accepted, I would pursue that avenue instead of Medicine. If accepted, the total time I would achieve that goal in 3 years instead of 5 more years of education plus a residency of 3 or more years.
I was accepted to the first Anesthesia Program I applied too. A program in a large Metro area on the coast with affiliations that allowed me to learn as many Regional Anesthetic Techniques as I wanted to learn. It was a very good program and some 3 years later I was one of 4 CRNA's in a hospital based practice in a town on the US West Coast.
One Regional Technique I had learned was how to do Lumbar Sympathetic Blocks. These blocks are fairly straight forward, easy to do and had been one Regional Technique used for pain relief during Labor that was combined with the OB residents doing a Pudental Block once the Baby's head approached a Peritoneal 0 to +1 stage.
In the Surgeon's Lounge at this west coast hospital I overheard the Chief of Surgery and another Surgeon discussing a patient who had extreme pain in her right foot on weight bearing. They were considering sending her to the Medical School Center about 100 miles away for diagnosis. I asked if they were needing a diagnostic block to see if she had Lumbar Sympathetic Dystrophy? They answered, Yes and I told them I knew how to do that block.
One surgeon was very doubtful but the Chief of Surgery asked me how I learned that block and I told him. I was allowed to go visit the patient, who was in the hospital, and explain the block, the risks and benefits of it and obtained Informed Consent to do it the next morning.
One of the Operating rooms was vacant the next morning so an OR Nurse, both Surgeons, the patient, a mid 50's year old Scottish Female Immigrant and I all came to that OR at 8 am.
I had the patient sit up on one edge of the OR Table, with the RN supporting her, both Surgeons watching as i did the block. That part of the procedure took around 5 minutes. Then I said we are going to wait for about 15 minutes for the anesthetic agent to work. the patient elected to remain sitting up for that 15 minutes time.
When the 15 minutes was up, I walked in front of her and held out my right hand and said, "Would you be so kind as to let me have the next dance with you?" She hesitated for a moment a moment and then with my help slipped off the edge of the OR Table and gingerly placed her right foot on the floor and put some weight on it and then grabbed me and hugged me with tears running down her face and said "My foot does not hurt!" It was the first time in years she had been able to place full weight on that foot!
She proceeded to dance with me around the OR for several minutes, with tears flowing down her face and multiple "Thank You's". The next day the Surgeon clipped the offending nerves and she went home a few days later a happy patient. The Surgeon never said "Thanks" for me doing the block which allowed him to do the surgery and get reimbursed for it instead of losing a patient to the big Medical Center 100 miles away.
I never did get to go to Medical School. My first wife died of her Leukemia about 3 years later, but I was able to give her a life she would not have had if I'd have gone the Medical School route instead.
Later I remarried, raised 4 children with the help of a fantastic wife, and at the ripe old age of 48 years old graduated from Law School and spent some 12 years helping defend Physicians, specifically Anesthesiologists, in Medical Mal-Practice Law Suits.
As I look back on things, now, I made the right choices given the events in life I faced.
Before Law School I was a Clinical Instructor in an Anesthesiology Residency Program as well as a Classroom Instructor in a Nurse Anesthesia Program.
My wife and I live in, what to us, is one of the most beautiful parts of the US and can look back on a life together that was filled with trials, successes and now enjoy a retirement knowing we made a difference in multiple people's lives over the years.
One element of success I learned was to think about what I would want done if I was the patient and always try to put myself in the patient's shoes and figure out what was needed to make the patient feel cared for and well!
Great story. One of the main pieces of advice I constantly give all my friends in medicine is "choose happiness over making more money" but no matter what I do, they often end up choosing money and being unhappy : (
Doc,
There are times we all make the choice for money over happiness. But hopefully we all learn to choose happiness at least some of the time.
The docs, like MWD and Dr. Aranda, who truly care to help their patients seem to have a spiritual calling. But we, the patients, have to be seekers as well. Sometimes the answers are simple like taking an herb or probiotic on an empty stomach. I started reading this today before a past client came in and told me the saga of her foot pain and attempts to get free of pain. She hobbled around with "spurs" when she needed surgery for three issues including barely attached Achilles tendon...timely!
Agree.
Some good tips here and a good reminder on looking for a physician who can actually look into healing and not just following the script. I agree that there are a lot of med students who are silenced early if they question the status quo when they could actually find something that could work.
I vaguely recall some movie back in the 80's/90's where a medical school teacher was dying with Lupus (I think) and when she presented a cocky student with the symptoms his initial response was "see ya, you're gonna die". When he was told it was said prof, he changed his tune/attitude. I think he then actually looked for real/working treatments (without finding one), but the challenge to the conventional thinking was there and resulted in some change. I don't really see that these days. :(
I read the "back pain" article recently and forwarded that on to a friend at church whose wife is going through some horrible back pain with little relief. It sounded almost exactly like her situation - seeing specialists who only knew that one thing to try. We'll see what comes of it, but at least it's a good read. Who knows - he may even read some other articles along the way.
Thank you
