I work with doctors every day. They are programmed to just believe "authorities" without question. If you argue with or question the chief medical officer, you will be either fired or harassed until you leave and those guys make all kinds of dumb rules to be followed for patients. They are also monetarily incentivized to do certain things. For example, depression screenings on each patient (written by one of the big pharma companies) and to do "follow ups" including prescribing drugs if the score is over X.
I finally found a doc I like. He was excited that I'd been treating myself for years and my lab work showed I've been successful and we discussed research articles about my issues and I was amazed that he was so open minded.
I'm not a particularly pushy person, I'll just not go back if something about them bothers me. The only reason I wanted a doc is because Quest has started giving me a very hard time ordering my own tests - they broke their website during covid and haven't bothered to fix it, so I actually have to talk to them and it's brutal. "Why come you don't have a doctor order?"
I wonder if there are alternatives to Quest... that would be super handy
Labcorp, but they don't seem to allow self orders. I think it's Sonora Quest and Labcorp in my neck of the desert. I kinda don't think they have any competition. There was a law passed when that crazy woman did the Theranos thing that allows us to order our own lab work out here, but the labs don't seem to keen on it. Before they broke their website, I was able to order and pay and when I went in, it looked to them like a doc ordered it, so there weren't any questions. Now, it's an argument every time and they shut down a bunch of their offices, so the one I go to is weeks out for a blood draw appointment, when it used to be same day or at worst two days out.
