I think healthcare is being run my drug companies, insurance companies and lawyers. Health professionals are constrained in their practice. I went into healthcare many years ago, because I cared, wanted to do my best. But now the priority is "targets". Not how many people you may help to get well, but how many you see each minute. Patch them up and send them out.

I really admire you for speaking about your experiences. Please don't give yourself such a hard time though, just reading what you write on here, makes me think outside of the drugs you may have prescribed, you probably had a bigger impact on your patients than you acknowledge.
