HOW THE MEDICAL PROFESSION CREATES STIGMA: DOCTOR ON DEMAND

WHEN YOU SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH TELEHEALTH GIANT DOCTOR ON DEMAND, THIS IS WHAT YOU SEE:

SINCE I NEVER PASS UP AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE FOOLS OF STUPID PEOPLE WITH AUTHORITY, SOMETIMES I CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE. THE CONVO GOES LIKE THIS:

"I'd like to make an appointment."

"What kind of appointment do you want?"

"What are my choices?"

"Medical or mental health."

"What's the difference?"

"Do you need a medical doctor?"

"You mean, a doctor who went to medical school and has a medical degree, or a doctor with a mental health degree? They're both M.D.'s"

"CLICK."

THIS IS THE KIND OF HYPOCRITICAL AND IRRESPONSIBLE SHIT PEDDLED BY MEDICAL

PROFESSIONALS THAT REINFORCES THE ILLEGITIMATE STIGMA OF PSYCHIATRY. AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO LISTEN TO MEDICAL CORPORATION EMPLOYEE TELL ME THAT MY CONDITION, FOR WHICH I SEE A MEDICAL DOCTOR AND TAKE MEDICAL MEDICINE FOR IS NOT CONSIDERED TO BE MEDICAL IN NATURE.

AND WE LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT.

A PSYCHIATRIST HOLDS AN M.D. WHY DOES IT STAND FOR MEDICAL DEGREE, AND NOT MENTAL DOCTOR?????
