[–] Streetlights@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 child) Thank for taking the time to lay that out for me. I am unable to comprehend the motives, but that at least starts to explain it. Unthinkable. Dude forgot his hippocratic oath. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pronell@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) Doctors tend to not take that oath any longer. Too much of what they do constitutes 'doing harm', seriously. "Some say that the oath is irrelevant in modern medical practice because it does not address ethical issues that are relevant today." Editing to clear this up: I mean insurance companies stopping them from helping their patients and not giving them enough time to accurately diagnose their patients. Just to be clear I'm not talking about gender affirming care or abortion. permalink fedilink source parent
