Yes. Health care professional have responsibility of patients health. Any medical error cost the patient, family, society at large. Patients have faith in the health care personnel. Indians think that doctor is God "వైద్యో నారాయాణ" While working in medical mycology, we encountered patients suffering from mycoses who were diagnosed wrongly and received wrong treatments

Dear Dr. Thammayya,

Thanks for your comment and sharing. I have the same feeling and helpless feeling with you. It drives me crazy to do many things that my peers do not want to do.

Frieda

If you carry out research keeping patients welfare, 'his environment and economy we will come to proper conclusion in treating and directing the patient towards proper goal

Dear Frieda Mah

I am not sure if I feel that responsibility, at least not in the way it is phrased. I do feel that I have a responsibility to accompany the patient if he or she wants, to find a way to work with his or her system. I do not believe in wonder drugs that miraculously cure all - but in changes in life styles which can bring more harmony to the person. Health is a life style. Achieving health (harmony) can include the use of herbs, therapy, meditation, massage, listening to dreams, acupuncture, or even western medical intervention if the person wants it. It can also involve spiritual guidance. As a person who accompanies others, I do not have to be the person who provides all these services so I like working as part of a team.

Warm regards Tina

Dear Tina Lindhard,

Thanks for your comment. I agree with you about the health care provider effort.

But, how many doctors are standing for the benefit of the patient's side to treat patients?

How many people in the health field is money driving?

Frieda

Yes! You are the main pillar as well as mainly responsible for to decide proper treatment for the patient.

Regards

Dr. Kamath Madhusudhana

Doctors have taken the hyppocratic oath. They have certain responsibilities such as if the treatment required for the patient is beyond their practice capabilities they should refer the patient to someone who can treat the patient. They should strive their best to provide the best possible care. However in western societies such as the United States tehre are various constraints posed by other entities such as hospitals, insurance companies, managed care, etc which ties the hands of the doctor in terms of his/her ability to give full care to the patient.

If you have selected health as a profession then you must be dedicated to protecting and saving lives. It should be your topmost priority! Treat patients as you would have wanted others to treat you. It's unfortunate that many health professionals forget their core mandate, treating patients as if they were mere goods. Shame onto such so-called health 'professionals'.

Countries must have strong monitoring systems in place in evaluating their work outputs and performances. This would aid in flushing out, as it were, all the counterfeit health professionals.

I look on healthcare with scepticism and see it as on occasion little more than an economic driver, with illnesses invented for internal and external economic purposes; for careers; for the creation of research which again attracts money: linked up to drug companies, in what is a monopoly. There is insufficient internal and external criticism, doubt and investigation.

To what extent is ADHD genuine?; neurologists say not to the extend claimed. Each patient creates an economic flood for doctors, assistants, attendant workers, and adds in effect to the influence and credibility of the professions. There's gold in them diseases!!!

Dear Dr. Kamath,

There are so many doctors like you, Tina Lindhard, Anisetti Thammayya, Max Stanley Chartrand, many other doctors in RG or other doctors out of RG. who are dedicate for their patient's health are all pillars in the medical field. We have a lot of jobs to do.

May be also Dr. Srini Vasan who I do not know well is also one of the pillars.

Anything in the universe, like when we treat diseases by acupuncture, if through all of our efforts, can find the right specific switch (es) i.e. acupuncture point(s), the mess of the medical field can be solved. I pray for it.

Frieda

Doctors do their part. But to take heavy responsibility for each patients health is expecting too much.

Dear Dr. Srini Vasan,

You are absolutely right. I do hope the massive military spending and the aging society, let all of the countries in the world to face the pressure to cut medical cost and looking for the most effective medical treatments.

So that,

There are too much to say.

However, I also can see doctors despite their Hippocratic oath such as to prevent their patients to accept acupuncture treatments, ask patients to do the treatments that they do not want to do or without looking for and refer a better treatment or doctor to their patients, etc. I even get much advice or even blames to let me stop working so hard for patients.

Frieda

Dear Dickson Adom,

You are too idealized. As Dr. Srini Vasan said, sometimes, we have tied our hands to practice. Such as hospitals' performance is how much profit a doctor can create for the hospital instead of how many patients can be treated better.

As an acupuncturists, we cannot stop patients to accept harmful treatments and/or drugs, even we have better and low cost treatments that do solve the patients' problems, etc.

Therefore, I post my treatment secrete that I lost money and even my health to get for free in order to get more adoptions to save more lives.

In the real world, deal with money, it's more complicated and out of many people's reasonable thinking.

Frieda

Dear Stanley Wilkin,

What you said is part of the medical field. Though it's hard. But, if you pay enough efforts, you can find the right diseases fighting physicians who can well treat diseases.

Frieda

Yes we do and not only that we should see to the improvement of the health of the populace

Dear Emmanuel V Murray,

You are absolutely right!

In TCM, patients also have their responsibilities and cannot through their health responsibilities to their healthcare professionals. The most common seen are: do not do exercises, do not cultivate their moral that is heavily related to their health, do not keep good postures, do not keep better hygiene, do not keep better lifestyle, etc.

In addition, policies, insurance also limited healthcare professional's performance. However, healthcare professionals have the freedom to change jobs, not accept insurance, etc.

Frieda

Very much like this Hippocratic Oath

...I will follow that system of regimen which, according to my ability and judgment, I consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous.

I will give no deadly medicine to anyone if asked, nor suggest any such counsel, and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to produce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and practice my Art.

I will not cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practitioners of this work. Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption; and, further from the seduction of females or males, of freemen and slaves.

Whatever, in connection with my professional practice or not, in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of men, which ought not to be spoken of abroad, I will not divulge, as reckoning that all such should be kept secret...

I once asked a medical student why he decided to study medicine. He said he wants to because of lack of job opportunities. That with medicine, he gets job easily. I was shocked but I quickly reminded him that medicine is not a money making profession. It is a humanitarian kind of job. I believed the advise helped him. So I implore lecturers in this profession to sometimes ask their students this kind of question.

Most definitely, I have a responsibility for animal and ultimately human health

I suggest we employ more scepticism when analysing the health services and attempt to understand better how it functions. I've suggested elsewhere that marketing and branding are ways in which it functions, in the fashion of any corporate and monopoly based business.

Candidly, health professionals must be responsible heavily for the caring/ treatment of patients under their care as they are benefiting from there.

Having read all of the foregoing answers, of which I agree, I see we have attracted a particularly altruistic group of commentators to this excellent question. In my capacity as a health researcher and innovator, where my main work has been in translational behavioral medicine and before that in communicative disorders and human development and nutrition, I've developed a strong personal philosophy on this. I will summarize some of those here:

1. I believe we are all teachers and mentors to those we serve, that with the wrong-headed trends of men trying to profit off of humanity's suffering, that our first duty is to make them no one's fool. This would entail showing them the evidence and helping keep themselves clear of health-destroying trends like alcohol, tobacco, high caffeine, GMO high-fructose, most processed foods, mass-produced food that is without micro-nutrients and other organic features, drugs of all kinds, symptomatic treatments only at expense of underlying causes, toxic food additives, microwaving food out of convenience, etc. What a list! And it's only a partial one. But think of the largest, most invested enterprises among men and we quickly see the evil from which we, by example and by vigilant education, can save much of humanity from being held captive by evil men and their contrivances to subjugate and limit each other for their own profit.

2. I believe the entire scope of Hippocrates oath that he built into his own school of medicine: Let thy food be thy medicine and they medicine be thy food...but first, do no harm. He saw the egregious practices of ignorant and arrogant men (not unlike what we typically see in our time) causing unbelievable damage and assault on the human body that was so unnecessary. The men of his day, as in ours today, did not know about (or observe) the astonishing healing powers of mitochondria, RNA, DNA, adenosine triphophate, and the whole cascade of immunological and adult stem cells--a virtual army of healers!--withing every cells of the human body. They did not (and do not) know about the largest organ in the human body, the interstitium, which connects every organ and part of the human body in a secret passageway that must be carefully and respectfully observed in its connective and immunological pathways if we ever hope to bring good health to our patients--it is the interstistium where cancer multiplies and spreads once we've coaxmed into becoming stronger and more intelligent, yet we unwittingly destroy the entire body trying to stop metastasis by not knowing about this largest of organs. They, back then, did blood letting and leeches and poisons and shockingly traumatic procedures, and today use bullying drugs, deadly toxins, and sham surgery to do the same thing--barbarians both! In nature we find the entire cornucopia of medicines and, in their simplest applications we call them food, spices, and preservatives. We use them little, especially not in medicine because it slow, nurturing, and requires time and vigilence--mostly on the part of patients--and, of course, no business model worth writing home about can be wrought from observing the vast science surrounding it.

3. We should make our strongest medicinal science around essential oils, herb, and other naturally occurring elements, and nanotherapies of selected ones. Homeopathic is really a collection of nanotherapies. Innoculations should be nanotherapeutic application (the essence or frequence of a given toxin or bacteria) to the nucleus of human cells--not these adjuvant-loaded strains of deadly bacteria. Between using nanotherapeutic doses of vaccines, improvements in hygeine, refraining from harmful substances, and healthy eating, we can irradicate almost all all of the world's communicable diseases from vexing our populations. But approach is laughed at, ridicules, and treated with derision in the haughty professions of money-making healthcare that do much harm and ignore all other admonitions of the father of Western Medicine.

So, there you have it--maybe it is not complete--but fairly comprehensive of how I see the obligations of medicine. Likewise, the patient is actually doing the heavy lifting by learning and living what is taught them by true practitioners of health and by true scientists of medical research.

Now we live in the era of globalization, which in fact led to degradation in all spheres of life: education, science, ecology, nutrition and so on. All this is reflected in modern medicine. If to formulate in one word, now any sphere of activity is business and nothing except for business. The birth of a man turned into a business, the death of a man - business, healthy food - business, education - business, ... and finally medicine - also business. Since this is so, then the question arises: How should we adapt to such a life. I will state only my opinion. It turns out that we ourselves must teach ourselves to get quality knowledge, that is, we must do self-education as the only guaranteed way to get real knowledge from the Internet. Why? Because the level of education falls sharply all over the world and this is a fact and this is already a stable trend. If we are more informed, then we will not commit stupid actions and give cause for us to deceive and earn money on our stupidity. For example, on one main Russian channel there was a conflict between the popular TV presenter and the owner of the channel. The presenter of the popular television program talked about a pharmacy mafia, which earns a lot of money on false medicines to treat bones. These drugs are very expensive, but the effect of treatment is almost none. At the same time, there were other drugs that were much cheaper and that really had a positive effect on the treatment of bones. As a result of this conflict, TV presenter was forced to leave this channel. The owner of the channel gave an explanation: Yes, TV presenter is right, but I need to pay wages to 2,500 channel employees from various sources, including from advertising these false medicines. Like this! That is, it turns out, by our stupidity we are deceived. So it turns out, we have to treat ourselves to keep our health, is not? So, we come to the conclusion: We can save only themselves using the correct understanding of objective reality in order to to make the right decisions. We should only rely on ourselves and therefore take things like education and medicine into our own hands where it depends only on ourselves. So, the right education is self-education, proper nutrition is nutrition with proper understanding of the products, the right medicine is self-medication. All this knowledge can be extracted from the Internet. If the situation is hopeless, then only need to seek help from teachers and doctors.

Dear Prof. Gennady Fedulov,

Great submission. I totally agree with you. The idea of monetizing everything should be discouraged. Honestly, I do not see meaningful progress with this attitude.

Dear Prof. Max Stanley Chartrand,

Very inspiring perception of yours. Please document all of it. I also went through your website and was inspired the more. Got some line to think of:

"Dr. Chartrand has earned six advanced university degrees - all without hearing lectures because he’s profoundly deaf!" He became severely hearing impaired as a toddler, and over time advanced to profound bilateral deafness as a result of toxic medications.

“There is no obstacle, challenge, or handicap that one cannot overcome to achieve one’s fullest potential. It’s a matter of knowing how to get there and being determined enough to do it,” he says. His mission is to provide the hope and encouragement people need to arrive with flying colors!"

Dear DR. Nyakno Jimmy George,

Sorry that I only can agree partial of what you said: " Candidly, health professionals must be responsible heavily for the caring/ treatment of patients under their care".

As I know that " they are benefiting from there." is not 100% correct.

The lifespan of the US was 78.9 years of 2016 data. Please read: https://edition.cnn.com/2017/12/21/health/us-life-expectancy-study/index.html

However, for the physicians was 73.0 years for white and 68.7 for black. Based on year 2000 data: Article Mortality rates and causes among U.S. Physicians

Doctor does not have the same benefit in life span as the others.

In an acupuncturist's CE class, the lecture acupuncturist who was more than 70 years old. He said: "I cannot understand why so many excellent Chinese medicine physicians who are good at Chinese medicine's nourishment, but die in so early?"

I know why. As a responsible physician, always has extra challenges to treat new encountered health problems: More toxic resources from drugs, air, water, foods, environmental pollution, more sever and aging patients who have too much complications and limited tolerance for the needed treatments, insurance, policy limitations, commercial drive the general public to wrong health directions, etc.

Besides on the job duty, after work, the studying, researching, thinking, the stress can be unlimited, if want to solve the patients' problems thoroughly. If not, the physician has you said benefit. Otherwise, lost money and health to pursue the solutions.

Frieda

Excellent comments from Dr. Max Stanley Chartrand, Dr. Gennady Fedulov, Chukwuebuka Egbuna. Thanks.

Stanley Wilkin reminds us how important the public education is. If can raise the public correct medical knowledge, the medical field will not waste so much money.

Thank you dear Dr. Frieda Mah.

Keep the good work going!

Well Freida, not sure I'm saying that.

I'm certainly against the intellectual and treatment monopoly dominant at present. The one shoe fits all mentality. The highly dubious hypothesis constructed by unscientific methods. The construction of illnesses and diseases in a business model context.

Dear Stanley Wilkin,

I agree with you. I think the solution is to educate the general public to have smart choice to get the right treatment. The monopoly dominant cannot cover 100% of the medical field. No matter hoe minority of the alternative medicine exists. Once the alternative medicine works, people pursue it.

Frieda

Frieda, medical bodies operate a marketing system which encourages people to trust implicitly its methods and efficacy. I have pointed out in a recent paper how it works. The NHS is a brand for example, and its websites involve a large number of smiley people, clean, nicely dressed, mainly middle-class who are forever efficient, never make mistakes, and whose treatments always work. There is no contradiction or doubt. Patients are always contented with the results. I'm afraid this is simply propaganda as a trawl through media websites focused on the NHS and health services in general will tell you. There is the doubt and concern. Health has become a product that confirms careers, pharmaceutical profits, and particular views on health. The actual results of treatments are often, but not always, camouflaged. There are areas of genuine expertise, but only areas.

While I'm busy with the subject.

I regularly receive the Lancet; there are rarely if ever papers that challenge perceived medical opinion. The same with the Royal Society of Psychiatry-whose papers I also receive. Everything they do is fine, patients always applaud them, there is never doubt or contradiction. Why? I'm afraid monopoly, no challengers and invested interests. All sciences, genuine sciences, must be open to challenge. In nearly all its ideas and methods, the medical bodies completely resist challenges (suppress them in fact) and, as a law unto themselves, proffer one view.

Dear Stanley Wilkin,

In Chinese, we have a saying: "Water can float the boat and water can sink the boat." The water is the general public. The boat is the ruling party.

There are other words that we followed in TCM:"Righteousness always can conquer the evil."

In Chinese culture, there are historical famous sentence:"The universe is full of the Righteousness and it exists everywhere in different forms".

If you can notice the Chinese yin (evil) and yang (Righteousness), they are circling. When reach its maximum, it reversed. It's one of the universal rules. So, please keep calm. Just do the right work for the public benefits. Eventually the real winner is the one who cares the majority people's health and/or future.

On the other words, people should sharpen their eyes to take their own health in the current situation. Blind following is gambling with his own life.

Frieda

Yes, it is ingrained in most people who embark on the profession.

Dennis, I briefly explored the Doctor-type personality in my recent paper. They appear, but genuine research is required, under the authoritarian type. Now this does not mean that they act like dictators-of course many do-but that they respond unquestioningly to authority and believe whatever they are told or read. As they themselves gain power, they become and exhibit the authority they originally accepted.

Hi,

Though, am not a consultant myself, but, yes, I do agree that a patient's health is completely depend on his/her practitioner.

Regards,

As a psychotherapist in the health field, I would like to stress the importance of the patient's will power as well. A therapist can and should do his/her best. However, if the patient is not willing to take his/her existential responsibility to be better, inevitably, the result will not be successful.

Best regards.

Dear Sahar Qazi

You are not the practitioner. You do not have the experience and I would like you to reconsider your words. Please read my comment above. The patient does have his responsibility.

I had a patient come in for weight loss. I told her to stop her Coca Cola and do exercise. She told me that she has 4 children, high stress and no enough money to pay me. But she really needed my help. I trust her and I lost big money to treat her every time.

Later, I discovered that her husband has good income and her kids major expenditures are paid by her mother-in-law who are rich in real estate. Actually, my patient has good savings. She made many false excuses to drink cold Coca Cola. One day, I figured out that I was cheated by her again, I called her: "Next time, please do not ask me the situation can drink Coca Cola, ask your body!".

So, she stopped visiting me. One month later, I met her on the street and her cures all came out. I asked her why? She told me that she stopped all Coca Cola and do exercises every day. I told her "See, it's what I asked you to do for a long time! If you listen to me, you get thinner months ago."

I can tell you tons of irresponsible patients' stories, but asked me for free or big discount. Those patients abused their body and rely on my treatments. They let me lose my savings, retirement funds and even my house! So, it let me also lost interest to treat patients. Now, I teach patients how to "Treat themselves by self-healing".

Yesterday, I just told a financial disadvantage patient who asked me for DM II free treatments. I taught her DA Zhou Tian qigong that only needs 5 min/day exercise. It can give her big health benefit. I told her that I want to see her do the exercise to help herself first. Then, I teach her more for free.

The DA Zhou Tian is proven by one of my friends who did the qigong for one week, his lips turning pink. He told me that his DM II was really getting better at what I said.

Patients ought to help themselves first to prevent sick!

Frieda

Dear DR. Meltem İdiğ-Çamuroğlu,

You are right. Under insurance, those patients only waste precious public resources.

However, in Chinese medicine, patients ought to make their mind to be better. If the drug's side effects hurt his kidney function and the drugs definitely do. It's better to recommend him to look for an acupuncturist's help to strengthen his body functions including his kidney. Due to we balance the patient's body, it makes the patient reach his homeostasis. By doing so, the patient's willing power can be strengthened.

Frieda

Very interesting discussion and learning a lot of new really cases.Thank for your sharing your experience.

Dear Mauricio Martí-Brenes,

Thanks for your comment. I declare that any successful is coming from collaborations. There is no way for "one side to take the full responsibilities" except for the authorities.

Patients have the choice to pick up his treatments most time, his lifestyle, diet, etc. He is able to correct his health when he before lost the ability to take care himself!

Please read all of my above comments. For patients, I lost my financial power in the US. In Taiwan, I start to lose my health. I refuse any one challenge if I take my responsibility or not.

I also strongly disagree patients does not have the responsibility to prevent getting sick, abuse their bodies and throw their health responsibility to their health care professionals. I also disagree that patients do not use their brain to blind follow advertising or do not study correct medical knowledge without bias or even ask the other patient's successful ride off disease experiences.

Frieda

Dear Stanley Wilkin,

There is an explanation for your research: When a regular person gets power from the authoritarian, if he is not smart enough, brave enough and ethic enough to make a change, he should be already assimilated into the authoritarian culture.

Your study is valuable and it fits to many fields. That's why a real leader is hard to find who can really benefit the public without lost public's future. Like politicians always promises the current benefits by over using many generations' fortunate.

Frieda

Dear Sivanathan Sivaruban,

Thanks for your interesting. It's the big time for aging area and the big changes in weather, natural disasters, technologies and the world political resources battle.

Our younger generations are under severe stress: Upside down triangle population, high medical cost, environmental and human mind pollution, world competitions, AI and robot job competitions, wars, natural disasters.

At this moment, as a health field professional, we can use our professional to ease our younger generation's burden. The general public also can by preventing diseases and look for the right treatments to reduce waste precious resources.

As I said: "It's everyone's responsibility to promote humanitarian medicine!

If everyone can put a little bit effort. that ignites hope for our offspring and bring them a smile!"

It's everyone's responsibility. Such as the air pollution is getting worse in the world in general. The weather is hot, the population condense is getting high. The air conditioner is a must to use in general.

If the air conditioner manufacturers can make a mild change in the filter to filter out the PM2.5 and some small harmful particles in the air before it enters the houses and building. It can save a lot of end user's money to buy air cleaners. It is especially benefited for the young people and financial disadvantage families.

Frieda

Profesora Frieda Mah .

Gracias a usted es un honor para mi su comentario y de acuerdo con su reseña al 100%.

Saludos afectuosos.

Dr.Martí.

I agree with Dr. Tina Lindhard

Thanks

Respected Frieda Mah ,

I completely agree with you on your point. No doubts whatsoever. But, I would like to quote this here: 'you need to use both of your hands for a clap'! If anyone of them is non-functional, you won't be able to clap. Similarly, there has to be an interdependent relationship between the consultant and the patient.

I have seen many professionals who for their own sake ditch their patients, in order to gain extra money from them. I would like to give my own experience here. I was in my 10th standard when I my one of my relatives was diagnosed with cancer. He was being treated by the most reputed doctors of India, and so, they charged him for useless things, such as, he was called for his chemotherapy sessions in the hospital, where he was not only being heavily charged for the medications and the bed, but also, for the eatable items which the hospital staff used to give him along with the medication. Well, shouldn't that be complimentary if the hospital staff is giving that alongside them medicaments? Anyhow, apart from that, once the chemotherapy session was over, my relative had to wait for hours in the long queues just to meet this "over-priced" consultant of his, for further reports, and this process was repeated every 2-3 months. It has been 8 years now, he is almost bank-corrupt because of his disease. It was only 2 years back, that my father asked him to change his consultant for a second opinion. You won't believe, but, the second doctor that he met, gave him just 2 medicines, asked him to meet after 6 months. The first consultant was practicing in a private hospital, while the latter one in a government one.

See, I am not against medical practitioners, my father is himself a doctor, and my younger brother is also now into MBBS. My point is there is a difference in consultants as well. Some are only for money making, while, some are actually practicing true medicine.

Regards,

Dear Prof. Mauricio Martí-Brenes,

Thanks for your support!

Frieda

Dear Sahar Qazi,

Your comment about 'you need to use both of your hands for a clap'! is excellent.

Thanks for sharing your experiences. The words of the mouth are highly needed in many professional fields. Indeed, the mystery of the professional as well as the varied qualifications and qualities of the professionals, get referrals from people's experiences is important.

Frieda

According to Ayurveda,Indian traditional system of medicine, doctor, medicine, patient, and attendee( Technician) are four pillars of are the main components of health field chain.

Regards

Dr. Kamath Madhusudhana

Dear Dr. Madhusudhana Kamath ,

Yes. It's the best description for a successful treatment. Thanks for your input.

Frieda

Partly YES ... although the patient himself also based on his lifestyles, therapeutic adherence, self-care capacity, pathogenic behaviors, etc....in fact, the best diagnosis and the best treatment are of little or no value if the patient does not follow them and the BEST PREVENTION GUIDELINES (because prevention is better than cure) are very useful if the subject himself does not take care of his own Health and a clear example we have now with the "Deniers" against the coronavirus and the Covid-19 pandemic as a result of it and with the "Anti-Vaccine" movements.

Dear Francisco Javier Gala

Thanks for your comment. Yes! It's a big headache for us if the patient does not follow our instructions or to make disease prevention.

COVID-19 vaccines have a variety of effects and side effects depending on where made them. Plus, COVID-19 mutations add more kinds of vaccine shots needed.

Best Regards,

Frieda

Thanks to you, dear Dra. Frieda Mah.

I believe they do.
