RE: Every time I think that the so-called professionals can't shock me any more...
Sadly, you're not wrong to suspect your doctor. Consider that referring patients to one another generates significant income for those that collude with one another to generate income thereby, and then consider the possibility that doctors may have arrangements for profiting from referrals to other agencies.
"... I had to inform a highly educated woman about what should be pure common sense..."
I have long noted the apparent contradiction between academic education and common sense. The former seems to displace the latter.
Thanks, and my best wishes on successfully negotiating the shoals before you and your family.
Yes, you're right, it's almost like common sense gets 'unlearned' in medical studies. The number of times I've questioned people in the medical field and had been answered with: 'But they/we are the professionals.' I can't even count it anymore. They seem to hide behind that a lot.
Thank you for your well wishes :)
