The exchange between me and Eris in your mentions.
Here's why a doctor would rather abide by ethic rules to avoid getting sued:
- you don't lose money to lawyers, that let's be honest are fucking lawyers, and aren't cheap
- you don't lose money in compensations to the victim
- your malpractice insurance premium doesn't increase to ridiculous amounts
- your job isn't put in jeopardy on account that you're now seen as a liability
- your reputation isn't tarnished
- your clients don't start avoiding you, cause they don't trust you anymore
- you don't lose potential new clients because of bad marketing through word of mouth, or worse your case appearing in the news
Overall a doctor understands that it servers him better in the long run to abide by the basic ethic rules established in the field. But hey, some people are just that stupid that they don't understand some basic things, and can't comprehend that others think farther than 5 minutes into the future.
It doesn't even matter if your doctor cares about you or not, he knows very well that it is in his best interest to act like he cares about your well being, because if he doesn't, his career won't last very long.
@Eris @dave
>Yes I think they would rather make huge amounts of profit and pay 10% of that to malpractice insurance and lawyers rather than just refrain from making that profit.
You're a moron. You loose way too much from lawsuits, and the worst of all is that you can never be sure just how much you could lose. You NEVER want to play with that fire.
But keep being a stupid conspiracy theorist for all I care. Bye.
@Eris @dave
You mitigate the risk by doing things by the book. One doesn't exclude the other.
You think they want to pay the lawyers when they can have measures to prevent being sued in the first place? Use that pretty little brain of yours sometimes. Nobody wants to be at the mercy of a lawyer, not even doctors.
>Need I remind you that they all pushed the Vaxx?
I don't care about your conspiracy theories.

>The MRI in a hospital is not owned by the hospital. It is owned by a doctor in that hospital.
Nope. That's completely wrong. I don't think you comprehend how expensive a MRI is to buy and maintain. No individual doctor would do something as stupid as buy an MRI himself. Unless he happens to actually own the entire hospital, but even then, the MRI would be legally bought by the hospital, not the doctor. So you're still unbelievably wrong.
Also, hospitals don't enjoy being sued for malpractice. They have rules and committees put in place to make sure doctors do things by the book. If a doctor does something stupid and gets sued, the hospital gets dragged into it too, because it is seen as their responsibility to supervise the doctor.
@icedquinn @dave @Eris
There's always an implied oath when studying or practicing medicine, even if you don't officially take it. Not to mention that actual hospitals and doctors abide by ethics committees all the time.
If plastic surgeons were to respect basic ethics, you probably wouldn't have boob jobs.
@Basedshibe
I already pumped all my semen into you. Have you considered that it's your fault? That you're sterile?
@Eris @dave
Not really. The issue with trans surgeries is that they're ultimately plastic surgeries. And plastic surgery is a field that attracts the most hack of doctors. Only thing less respectable than a plastic surgeon is a homeopath.
I'm not even sure if the Hippocratic oath applies to plastic surgeons, cause most of their customers aren't actually sick or ill. They just want a different nose or boobs. Not exactly a life threatening condition. So "do no harm" kinda gets broken the second they cut you open to change your nose.
@dave
The issue always seems to be that such people are rushed into it, by hack doctors looking to make some quick money. Also, they're not properly informed of the risks and potential side effects of any of the medical treatment (from blockers, to hormones and surgery), and they're strongly discouraged by their echo chamber to seek information from sources that don't favor these treatments, or that speak negatively about them.

This one is one of those that is so bad that I desperately don't want it to be true, but in my heart of hearts I know it to be true.
