The real issue here is not perks for physicians but the corrupt, inefficient, self-serving system that insurance companies and hospital bureaucrats have devised for the American public.

This is the sort of idiocy that promotes the rise of demagogues like Trump.

The time from infection to clinical presentation is likely to be a lot longer in the case of a neurological disorder which effects adults than in utero consequences. If there is a substantial increase in neurological sequelae, we're li

Altucher basically makes a living from extrapolating from things that most people without definitive knowledge assume to be true. His writing is the worst kind of merger of self-help, armchair psychology and social commentary.

Please would you elaborate on this? Or provide some sort of reference?

I'm being slightly facetious. As a generalisation though, many (or most) doctors: - Have lousy work hours. - Have a lot of work-related stress and are therefore often quite moody and irritable. - Often have poor social skills, and can

Blood tests vary from reasonably simple to extremely complex, extremely reliable to extremely variable and requiring no further action (as in your case) to requiring multiple possible further decisions. Understanding the results of multiple

This is extremely simplistic logic. (I'm a physician). Blood tests vary from very simple to extremely complex, extremely reliable to extremely variable and requiring no further action (as in your case) to requiring multiple possible fu

She did you a favour. Doctors are notoriously hard to live with. (Doctor here. Married to probably the only female doctor who is not hard to live with ;))

Its incredible how SJWs have done their best to paint anyone who points out the obvious problems associated with mass migration (particularly people from an intolerant, sexist culture) as the problem. When political correctness appears, log

I know I'm at risk of sounding tremendously disparaging but, how critical is it to actually go to college to get a liberal arts education? Can most of these aspects of a "more well-rounded education" not come from reading, tr

Also, some other pointers: - Meds take a long time to work. Don't give up on a drug until you've tried it for at least several weeks. - Same for therapy, don't leave a therapist because you have one bad session or they say s

I really wouldn't read too much into MR spectroscopy studies. MRS is an extremely blunt instrument and only serves to line peoples CVs with scientific sounding publications.

I struggled with anxiety for several years (only realising in retrospect that it was anxiety that was the principle source of my ills.) I benefitted from an excellent, no BS therapist as well as finding the right medication. It took me seve

I'm sorry but I disagree with most of your comment (with the exception that we concur that the muslim population needs to take responsibility for their own communities - through their religious leaders being more vocal about "fana

As someone with very little knowledge of encryption etc. please advise - how safe is dropbox? I would have guessed it would be a relatively frequent target for blackhats.

Unfortunately, the reality of the world is that many people do not adhere to this. Thus the need for strong leadership to bring those who will not co-operate kicking and screaming to the discussion table (or to eradicate them if no such dis

There's no question that the ideology of islam - or at least the ideology of several of its sects is a critical element in these attacks. Claiming otherwise is leftist PC nonsense. Sure there are many good muslims, most of whom you wil

Thank you for sharing. I'm very skeptical from everything I've read about this organisation. I can't see much evidence that this isn't just a lucrative scam preying on people during vulnerable times in their lives. I&#x2

Its principally a corruption issue. Western governments and corporations reinforce crony, incompetent governments in developing countries so that their resources can be exploited. These crony governments then steal (literally) from the popu

I'm sorry to hear about your father and I empathise deeply with what you and your family must have gone through. Despite the solemn nature of your post, I feel the need to correct a few points: (I am a doctor - a radiologist) - Palpati
