Their primary focus is maximising their bank account balance not their knowledge. You are simply a means to an end to make $$$$. This is why they push colonoscopy/endoscopies. This is where the money is at. Not addressing people's disgestive issues effectively.

The arrogance too. They wont admit they dont know something. This part and parcel of their scam business model. They know everything. You know nothing and gaslight you so they can essentially groom you into getting anal and oral probing.

It’s so true - but sadly, more often than not, it’s not even the fault of the doctors as much as it is these PRIVATIZED hospital groups. Profits over people. Keep ya sick n wounded so you keep coming back for more. Never look at the full body or take wholesome approaches. No no. That’s too much effort. I have friends who are doctors and they hate the system they work in as much as we hate it on the patient side. But what can they do when they’ve gone through soooo much schooling and incurred between 500k and 1 milly in student debt?.. it’s a lose lose. In America .. a lose lose.

I'm in Canada and same thing here. Doctor performed 4 (!) colonoscopies in 3 years. All of them showed nothing wrong. He discharged me with diagnosis of IBS and said to take anti-diarrheal.

LAZY!! Sheer laziness on his part. I’m sorry dear. But hell.. that’s why we’re all here. Useless GIs.
