Medical profession

By jamesmcmorris

One of my concerns about the medical profession is that the doctors, once they have completed their internship and are working in the field, are receiving much of their information from pharmaceutical salespeople. I question if the pharmaceutical salespeople have the same standard concerning the patients well being as the doctors do when the doctors graduate. The “Do no harm” rule often does not appear to apply. Instead the rule often appears to be “This drug will generally do more good than harm”.  Unfortunately, for the patients that the drug does harm, the results can be devastating.

    I question them too. Recently an ex-big-time-pharma-rep joined the GNIF Brain Blogger writing team. You can read Mr. Dan Abshear’s articles that expose the system with insider details. Thank you.

    Sincerely,
