Do you think Doctors lie?

[MidKnight]

Absolutely, yes especially that doctors on private hospitals. I had once had a skin irritation that spread all over my body and I went to a doctor and all she had offered were expensive medical treatments from ointments and capsules that she has. They just want their patients keep coming back.

[Paleus]

You should confront your doctor directly. Nothing better than a yelling match in the hospital halls.

Ask him if he was smoking. If he doesn't answer with a clear answer get right up in his face. Don't be afriad to raise your voice and start jabbing him in the chest with your index finger.

Be strong. Show him who is boss.

Shake your head as you leave his office cursing under your breath.

I think they are not lying, but they don't have many experiences in their field. I can say that because sometimes the doctor making a wrong analyze for his patient and one doctor can be different from the other doctor because his experience cannot be the same and cannot compare. Besides that, the case of every doctor is the same too and to handle the patient will be different too.

Sometimes patients may minimize or exaggerate symptoms to avoid key clinical issues) So doctors also sometimes need to lie (smart move card) to get the right results (answers)

This is why we as patients are free to look for a second opinion, third opinion and so on from other doctors.

They are not god or computer to always make right decision,they also might make mistakes from their knowledge or without knowing it as well.So jf you are getting analysed for something from your doctor then you will get different tablets for the same problems if you visit another doctor.

Since most humans or in this case patients are scared of the plain truth, sometimes doctors are forced to lie to us in  certain instance for our own good so we dont get scared. Personally, I  dont think doctors lie, they only want the best for their patients.

[kotajikikox]

Yes some doctors are liar and some are honestly saying the truth to those who are sick.well doctor is always half truth and half lie this is to be able to earn money.
Well I know doctors help us  when we are sick they help us to be feel better.but there some point they didnt say all the good for us.they wanted us to come back to them.
saying for follow up check.why they say this? Is it because again to earn money?

[Achee3]

Not all doctors lie and some of them that lie can either be protecting themselves or theor patient when they lie about something. Everyone that lie will surely have a reason to put up when asked.

[TimeBits]

Recently i went to the hospital to check see the doctor and i was told the doctor to attend to me will be back soon, while waiting, he came in and from the look of things he had gone to smoke, it got me thinking, can it be that they are telling us not to do this and that and if you follow them you wont eat anything because everything is bad to health, no drinking of alcohol, smoking of any kind and the list is endless, why would a doctor now turned around and go smoking?

100% yes, doctors lie, they are drug dealers and they do not even know it, and people also lie to the doctors to milk the system.

People lie, doctors are people.

[StaffDear]

They don’t lie. Doctors are also humans and have their own weak sides.
Smoking is addiction, that not easy to give up. So, it’s better don’t start.

Look at it this way. The life expectancy of doctors is still under 80 years on average. So, if these smart guys don't live that much longer than the rest of us, why would we think that they are telling the truth about much of anything they say?

Don't doctors want to live longer? And if they can't make themselves live longer, why would anyone think that they can prescribe the truth to somebody else?

Why do you even bother going to doctors or hospitals?  Just pray to your Lord!

All religious people should have faith in God, not hospitals or doctors.

Aw, you're just jealous that I got something that works. You're welcome to join me. though.

The Lord gives someone cancer... then that someone feels they betrayed the Lord and spends more time worshiping them to cure the cancer.

It would be nice if they clogged their churches instead of our hospitals.

Doctors are human and humans do lie. Lying is the first thing humans learned when they started communication this is one of the saddest things humans have evolved. even our ancestors do lie and sometimes doctors do lie because that can be an advantage for you or they do it just to avoid their personal life.

[Cnut237]

Do you think Doctors lie?

Some doctors lie, but this is because 'doctors' is a subset of 'people'.
Some people lie. I don't think there is a higher prevalence amongst doctors... and in general, given their profession, you might expect a doctor to be more honest than someone who works in, say, advertising or sales (or politics).

[Tash]

Stay away from the tel-lie-vision doctor and the outlock is better.

[D-law]

Why ask silly rhetorical questions ? When you know the answer to this already.
We're all humans, lieing has saved a whole lot recently,so majority of the world do this on a routine.
So the answer in general is that all professionals do lie irrespective of your status.
Yes, Doctors lie!!
