[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s be honest: most docs trained in the last few decades don’t know what they are hearing through a stethoscope unless the diagnosis is “death.” We have a problem here and it’s a lot bigger than in-person visit availability.[/quote] [quote=Anonymous]1000000% well said.[/quote] Well, then, not having access to them is no harm to the two of you. Excellent! No harm, no foul. [/quote] Oh, it’s plenty of harm. They can’t diagnose abnormal heart sounds via stethoscopes, but they sure as God made little green apples can send you for a merry-go-round of defensive testing that costs $$$, does not improve care, and clogs up the system for people who really need it and could benefit from it—despite the practice of the physical exam being this deteriorated. It’s a problem for everyone using the health care system. And that means all of us.[/quote]
