Ya, I think that Doctors are kind of limited in some ways too, they usually have to handle things the same way and don't get to cross train much as far as I can tell. Med school is already pretty long though.
There is so much we can do for ourselves, especially preventative work :)
True, they can only know and do so much. And most handle so many patients. I think that's probably one of the biggest gripes they'd have, if we could speak to them on the issue. Not being able to spend more time with the patients. That's where we have to help ourselves. And preventative, for some reason that's a dirty word. Guess that's where the profit motive comes in, but alas.
Not much money in preventative haha
