Re: Fascinating interview with Dr Myhill

[Guest guest]

Great to see this Miriam - thank for posting. It reinforces my views from what I

had read on Dr Myhill's site. This is a doctor who has really done her research,

is interested in the whys and wherefores underlying illness and has developed

treatment protocols based on a real understanding of health processes. Wish

there were more like her - like many " geniuses " - she is being penalised by the

medical profession because she is ahead of her time. Let's hope medicine catches

up with her ...one day. I am not holding my breath(!)

What I have noticed in recent years is that at one time doctors were not paid such vast amounts and had to work full time to make a decent living.

Now that they are earning vast amounts of money they can make a good living out of working only part time.

This is happening at my surgery. With the same amount of patients but shorter doctor hours something has to suffer. Time spent with each patient probably. The "I can only deal with one symptom at a time" syndrome.

At one time doctors used to make a rota as to outside hours visiting. They even used to open a surgery on a week end for emergencies.

Now the NHS has to pay out even more to pay for extra out of hours doctors.

This is the sort of GP we should all have access to on the NHS!

[Guest guest]

Yeah, and they have to toe the line or they lose their licence to practice!!

This is the scary thing, doctors have to pay their own way through university

and then are restricted to following 'guidelines' when they get a job or else!!

It must be hell for the genuine caring doctors that they are not able to do the

best for their patients, merely live withing the guidelines.

Then they have such huge debts to pay back its no wonder that they all turn out

like Irish mine detectors!!

Sorry no racism intended it is from a cartoon I saw many years ago!!)

I'll see if I can find the cartoon but a brief description is a man in wellies

with his eyes closed and fingers in his ears stamping one foot around in front

of himself.....

HI LILLIAN

I have before me an article that appeared in a newspaper in 1999-2000, headed

GP's have lost their vocation says survey. The result was that only 3per cent

said they entered the profession out of a lifelong sense of vocation, and in

1976 it was 39 per cent.

Their predessors could diagnose without all the expensive equipment and

unreliable test results.

When I had my children ones GP visited their patients in hospital, and mine even

did some surgery on his day off.

We don't have much in the way of emergency cover and now they are going to cut

out sending an ambulance, which could be the difference between life or death.

I think eventually the GP will be replaced with a Doctor at the end of a

computer.

The nursing staff also did a lot more for less wages.

Should we ask our GP's why they became Doctors to see what they say.

I also get this " one symptom at a time " . This in turn leeds to errors.

I don't think you can even make 6 appointments if you have 6 symptoms, as you

can only make one appointment at a time.

Do you write a list out and ask him which should be dealt with first.

I only wish DR MYHILL lived near me.

Kathleen, I had a friend whose son was about to go to medical school. When I asked him why he wanted to be a doctor he replied "the money".

Which brings me to my very favour quotation Glynis:

opens outwards, so that the only result of the pressure of facts upon it is to

close it more snugly " - Ogden Nash

HI Lilian

If all Doctors do the job for is the money, its time they were made to pay for

their errors, and not for it to come out of the NHS.

I agree entirely Kathleen. But they would all go on strike if that

happened.

And according to a joke I once read - the death rate would fall by 50%!!!

When doctors went on strike in Israel the death rate fell:

Original article in BMJ, but you have to register to read it.
