It seems like

"This system isn't working for anyone, and patients are beyond pissed while doctors are burning out under it right and left and can't seem to fix it from within, no matter how much patients yell at them."

looks exactly like

"This is the way it is. Doctors have it hard. So suck it up, be quiet, and be grateful for what we give you."

to some people.[/quote]

Look, I’m a teacher. I get it. We’re crashing and burning in a failing system, too. Last time I commented on DCUM about the challenges we face, I received very little sympathy.

Teachers’ tones don’t translate well on DCUM, and parents can perceive our frustrations as insulting. I absolutely see why that is the case. In a similar manner, the tone of this thread is rather condescending toward patients. Things may be bleak in your profession, and so you have to accept that has an impact on patients’ perceptions.[/quote]

You make good points. I understand that doctors aren't happy with changes to health sector management, but the title of this thread transfers that dissatisfaction with executives to the patient. Is that the second stage of burnout - depersonalization?

The patient in turn is paying more than ever for healthcare, yet gets less attention than in past decades.
