So who are they really working for? Do you feel safe in their hands?

I always keep in mind that a doctor "a surgeon"did save my life. When I had an emergency appendix operation. So all doctors are not bad. Of course, this guy. My guess would be that his money was made more on surgeries, not so much medications. I was lucky I got a good one, and I'm always grateful for that.

But do I feel safe in the hands of all doctors – especially neurologist – I can honestly say, but for one neurologist in nearly 25 years of experiencing them – – I just never got that warm fuzzy safe feeling. So, do I feel safe? No, I don't. If I would have taken all the drugs that they tried to push on me. I truly believe I would not be in as good of shape"for the shape I'm in"or not even alive. Some have a license to sell drugs – and some sell them on the streets and behind closed doors. Sad but true, money seems to rule no matter what the consequences.
