"Most doctors don't give a damn" if someone dies? Perhaps you had a bad experience with a physician, but please don't generalize that to the entire profession.

Perhaps you had a bad experience with a physician, but please don't generalize that to the entire profession. That's a ridiculous, inflammatory starting position.
- Devilboy 15y agoYea he was a bit crass there but the point is that patients die all the time and doctors will keep doing what they do. But being sued for malpractice is one of the most destructive things that can happen to a doctor's private practice and they will go to great lengths to avoid that.
- lurker19 15y agoIt is wonderful that someone does. If doctors were as squeamish about death as I am, nobody would try to practice life-saving medicine at all and outcomes would be far worse.
