As an internist, I don't know what it's like for others, but my stethoscope is never far away. It's on my shoulder normally, and sometimes in my left coat pocket. Without a stethoscope on my person, I always feel like I'm not holding on to anything, like a soldier going into battle without a gun in his hand. Nowadays, doctors don't carry stethoscopes because they don't know how to listen, and there are many so-called specialists and professors who just want to collect more registration fees, and they can't diagnose any disease without medical examination equipment.
Well, yes, in the past, when I went to the doctor, the doctor listened to the front and back of the chest to listen to a long time. I remember my grandma eighty-six offenses, sent to the county people's hospital, the doctor asked about the condition, medical history, family history, whether there is a history of allergies, history of genetic diseases ......, and then listened to half a day with a stethoscope, and did not mind the old man's breath on my grandma. As a dermatologist, I really don't use a stethoscope much, so I don't wear one either. What I carry with me is just a flashlight and a magnifying glass.
Nowadays, everything in hospitals is based on machines, stethoscopes are used by traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and in order to make money, hospitals have purchased machines, and they charge for checking the machines first, so the stethoscopes are lagging behind.
Because the "stethoscope" is not charged. Now the doctor is really good when, let's say stomach pain, first registered a number, to give you row a CT (epigastric lower abdominal scanning) 870 yuan did not understand, and then once again (epigastric lower abdominal enhancement) 1530 yuan or not, and then give about (adrenal gland enhancement) 510 yuan light row of film three times spent 2910 yuan, this treatment method does not have to ask the rash, the stethoscope, relying on the machine cT doctor to write the report will be confirmed rash, the doctor is not a good doctor, the people more flowers. The doctor is good when, the people spend more ?????????????????????.
Many of the previous partners have answered a lot of reasons, but also very reasonable. However, nowadays, the hospital, saving lives and helping people is only its basic function, the main purpose is still efficiency, that is, to generate income. That stethoscope is too earthy, small Ksh.
