My grandma recently saw a doctor who was using ChatGPT/Google to answer her questions. She told them she didn’t feel comfortable with that because these are things that her previous doctor knew and the doctor responded with “Well times change.”

That's the sort of thing that should get a doctor investigated and maybe even fired. This is malpractice.

See that’s what I thought, but turns out it’s much more common than you think

Small town shit

Are you in the US? If so, I heard US healthcare is bad, but if so, it's even worse than I thought. Still fucked up wherever in the world it happens though.

Awful doesn’t even begin to describe it. The only hospital in town was recently bought out by a private equity company

My grandpa went to the emergency room around 10pm on a night last week and was told they had to wait because they didn't have a doctor in. This was after telling us he had liver failure and when we took him to a better hospital there were absolutely no signs of liver failure
