This Week's Health News

We found this article from Epoch Health, which puts into words what many of us, particularly from the Boomer generation, notice about what has been lost in health care. Those of us of a certain age can remember the time when doctors made house calls, spent more than 10 minutes with patients. When one could get an appointment to see the doctor the same day, or the next day. When specialists visits or X-rays could happen within a week and surgeries were scheduled before conditions deteriorated.

Despite that high level of primary health care, most doctors earned above-average incomes, and most specialists and surgeons earned even more.

We have to agree that technological advances, improved diagnostics, and a wider range of medical products have saved many lives. But a lot of good practices have been lost along the way.

If you are interested in why cells turning off is a factor in many chronic illnesses, here is an article from "The Forgetting Side Of Medicine" by a Midwestern Doctor.
