But some are saying that. I've heard quite a few doctors and nurses say it. People want health care providers who will focus more on preventive health, who will spend more than 5 or 10 minutes with them, who think there might be an effective treatment other than drugs, who will
listen to them instead of just ordering more tests.
I'm not saying there are no health care providers like this, nor am I blaming it all on the health care providers. It's a systemic problem that involves the health care providers themselves, the insurance companies, the pharmaceutical companies, medical schools, tort litigation . . . .
Hence, the there's-nothing-simplistic-about-this-issue aspect of all this.
