Do you think Doctors lie?

[syedakhlaque]

Doctors should be model characters. They should not tell a lie to their patients. They avoid smoking, drinking alcohol, etc. They should mot advice to the patients on which they are acting. people want to see their doctor as model one. They should deal with their patients politely and softly. The people come to them in worry and trouble. So they should treat them kindly.

I don't think Doctors lie. They're supposed to follow the hippocratic oath but now that is being "rethought" and no longer required like everything else that is solid is now like a thin sheet of ice...

Overall, I want to think that doctors try to help people and try the best treatments to resolve ailments. However, most of today's modern doctors are merely pill pushing sales people as they are given money and incentives to sell various pharmaceutical medicines which are no cures but rather treatments to a disease or ailment that people subscribe themselves to.

I see doctors as hypocrites who do not do what they say. They say they are all for saving lives and not for the money but they do otherwise not minding the oath. Without money deposited most doctors will not attend to  patients. Again, doctors lie because they are humans and it is in humans to lie. Pastors and priests also lie. It is not just doctors alone.

The Hippocratic Oath is fundamentally at odds with any practical form of socialized medicine since socialized medicine will always be based around the theory of 'greater good.'  Something has to give, and that something is/was the Hippocratic Oath.

The dynamics are basically 'Some people must die so that others can live'.  Under individual doctor/patient models it is not practicable that a doctor operates 'efficiently' except when he/she is a genuine sociopath.  Only a socialized system where medical decisions are made within the administrative chain, and where the decision maker is isolated from the patient, can systematic policy be implemented and resources used 'efficiently'.

The bothersome aspect to me is that most people under 30-ish have accepted or could easily accept that 'the greater good' means saving Mother Gaia from the human infestation which opens up a whole new stage upon which to design and implement medical policy (or program computers to do it.)  I suspect that those 30% who are genuinely hypnotized enough to really buy into the scamdemic and can never change could be convinced to willingly sacrifice themselves on this alter.  And very well may be.  If so; 'bye-bye'.

I can't say doctors lies, just that the way they explain things on how someone should stay away from from a diet or something else is as if that thing is very dangerous, Which is not like that.  I don't see why doctor should lie, lying does not worth the profession of a qualify doctor.

No doctor that will give you wrong prescription or tell you what is not supportive, doctors does not lie to their patients the will give you information that will help your health and also direct patients for life preservation and maintenance of life,  so i believe that no doctor that is less qualify to do it work.

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?

I know doctors who smoke and drink. I don't blame them. The truth is they must have picked up these habits right from medical school as a coping mechanism or a form of escapism. You know, they are humans too and go through all the stress we undergo. Besides, they work long hours and are likely to see 500 patients in a day. This happens in areas where there's a scarcity of medical personnel. It soon takes a toll on them and their mental health. While some see it as a problem and are seeking help, for others they think nothing can happen to them, are they not doctors?

[CryptoKingh]

in my opinion, Doctors don't study medicine , they take studies from the Big Pharma companies. However, they don't lie, they only misguided

Surprising to hear but after God, those on whom our life and death depend and those whom we blindly believe in all our illnesses (doctors) do lie.
Sometimes their lie is a very serious lie and it can be very damaging.
 
I've seen a news some days ago in a renowned newspaper,
**Doctors have been collecting medicine and hospital fees from the patient's family day after day, even after the patient has died a long time ago!

Doesn't that sound horrible?
But a lot of such things happen.

Let me tell you another incident,
**Taking advantage of the ignorance of the rural people who are not well educated, the doctors misappropriated a lot of money by showing their false reports.

I am really disappointed with the condition of these doctors. It's not like everyone is corrupt, A short number of doctors. Hopefully one day their good sense will rise.

[Ems.]

Before to share my opinion of this question i would like to ,say something,SOMETIME KEEPING SECRETS IS TO PROTECT SOMEONE TO BE AFRAID OF THAT SITUATION HE /SHE,TO BE ABLE to comfort someone in danger situations.For the Dortors,to lied  sometimes there choices to protect there patients but for the whole family someone representative they can tell the truth,so  expressing to lie is not just you wanted.

[Lordhermes]

I have seen doctors who lie,simply because he is offered money to lie.Most atimes human being seems to make doctors take the position of God in their lives,because they so much believe that doctor's are next to God since they treat people who are about to die of illness,and they get well.

Another reason why a doctor can lie is because he has seen so many people either faint,die or any other thing after being told truth,so they chose to lie in other to save lives.

I have been a Christian preacher for sometime now.  Everyday I teach most people the words of Jesus and I encourage them to listen and obey them them. But most times I fail to do what I teach. Doctors are humans and have feelings and emotions. Humans are imperfect, hence are bound to fall below standard, which includes lying.

Yes, this is it. The topic could be retitled "Do you think people lie?", to which the answer is "People lie sometimes. Some people lie more often than others."

I would think that doctors lie far less than people in other occupations, certainly in countries where healthcare is free. Our default state is to tell the truth, in order to lie you need an incentive to do so. This can be as small as not wanting to have an awkward conversation, it could be to hide an indiscretion or bad decision, but it could also be in order to gain something, which could be enhanced reputation, or could be money. In our society, money is a powerful incentive... so professions where lying is more common are likely to be those where lying can lead to profit, so things like sales and advertising.

I agree, just because one has knowledge about something doesn't necessarily mean they will apply that same knowledge on their own body and life as well, I mean, everyone knows the dangers of smoking and it doesn't need a doctor to know about the dangers it comes with and still people smoke, I guess it's absolutely bad to judge a doctor by what his own lifestyle is, his advises should be followed and not his own life!

In some countries doctors are parasites who you never should trust.

[Edith1994]

Doctors are all human they are not different from me and you so they do lie as well also remember they do live on Earth and around us too they are likely to do what we all do too so it nothing new. They will also play their path in your life telling you the good and bad, what to avoid and what not to, it their job they are doing, is what they are born for and study for.

[tvbcof]

In some countries doctors are parasites who you never should trust.

In most societies 'healers' and 'shaman/priests' tend to be associated if not the same thing.  They tend to be the high-IQ and/or sexually confused weirdos of society, both of which have an upper hand in understanding psychology enough to use it to their advantage.

In the modern technological era, which is dominated by scientism, 'scientific experts' have displaced the shamanistic spiritual elements, but the practitioners fill the identical gap for the sheeple.  Their own personal peculiarities transferred over from the 'spiritual elite' to the 'scientific elite' almost perfectly.

What I find fascinating is that the propensity for child sacrifice also transferred over as above.  I see very little difference between a Babylonian 'expert' who burnt children on a golden bull, and Aztec 'expert' to ripped out the heart of kids then threw them down a pyramid, or a hostpitalist or public health 'expert' who injects the mRNA de-pop injection into a 5-year-old kid.  Or 6 month year old when Gates has paid off some more 'public health experts'.

Even more interesting is the fact that the sheeple will happily and frantically offer up their kids to these 'experts'.  I don't doubt that the same people in the same proportions were running to the sacrificial ceremony, kids in tow, in all three instances.

[Eltharion]

It depends on the country, in some countries the so called doctors resemble butchers and lieing is the least you should expect from them.

[Lordhermes]

No,I don't think they lie because they are doing the job they practice,especially qwhat they've learnt,and are also operating on human life,so I don't really see them lying or think they can lie.
But if they should lie,I believe they must have a personal reason why that should happen,may be because they are scared of telling a patient their actual result after consulting a test on them,maybe they know if they tell them the truth,they might collapse or faint,so avoiding that, might lead to a lie.

[D ltr]

everyone lies, there is not a single human being who is clean from lies, even if it's a doctor
but it's good if the doctor suggests what can reduce our disease, we follow it, and vice versa if the doctor provides an unreasonable solution it can be refuted or ignored

[Zalmi1000]

Some doctors lie, but not all . They prescribe you medicines that are very expensive, although the same disease could be cured by medicines with less money.
