here is proper doctor comparison: imagine you are a plastic surgeon and patients comes in with stack of cash and demands you make a surgery that is not medically necessary and is high risk for him - and you do it anyways and then the patient leaves happy.
if you refuse, the patient would just go to the doctor next door and pay him.
- leephillips 6y agoThis is clearly a terrible doctor. Am I wrong? Isn’t this doctor violating the Hippocratic oath?
- slt2021 6y agoplastic surgeons usually perform procedures that are not medically necessary, but only improve appearance to boost patient's self-esteem (boob job, facelift, butt job, etc)
- leephillips 6y agoYou moved the goalpost. You stipulated high risk in the comment I was replying to. And who cares what plastic surgeons “usually” do? A doctor who gives boob jobs to women who are already “normal” (not to reconstruct after a mastectomy, for example) is a scourge who is exploiting society’s bad attitudes and exploiting his patients. Not a good doctor. Or are you suggesting that if a lot of people do it, that makes it good?
