Canadians have become very familiar with increasing demands on our universal public healthcare system.
Any
Canadian who has gone to a local hospital, medical clininc or to a
family doctor for themselves or with a loved one may be familar long
waits and line-ups.
Many pundits in the media will say the system
just needs 'more money'. But, what about the need to ensure money is
being spent in the best way to promote the health and overall patient
quality-of-living?
Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum has shown just how doctors
can abuse and take advantage of public healthcare for their own
apparent self-aggrandizement that's at the expense of patient care.
RateMds.com
showcases a variety of complaints against Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum treating
his Office like a McDonald's drive thru window for test that did not
lead to treatment.
In response to these published complaints,
it appears that RateMds.com in collusion with Dr. Tenenbaum has sought
to replace these negative reviews with questionable reviews more
favourable to Dr. Tenenbaum which does not put the integrity of that
site in a postivie light.
In one particular instance, it is
apparent that Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum "poked and prodded" an elderly woman
who he promised to make better. But after having exploited her for
numerous tests, the only "treatment" Dr. Tenenbaum provided led to a
nasal spray which resulted in chronic high blood pressure that the
patient had no prior medical history of having; and also bottles and
bottles of Tylenol Arthritis to apparent numb the pain of the gross
medical malpractice of this doctor. That patient now can no longer
walk, talk or write.
The resources that could have been more
properly allocated to other patients from other doctors who could have
used those tests for making their patients better was instread taken up
by Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum's apparent scheme.
When the patient that
Dr Tenenbaum had abused, was taken to a naturopthic and homeopathic
doctor, Dr. Tenenbaum's patient's condition had improved considerbly.
But, when that patient was pressured to going back to Dr. Tenenbaum
their condition declined in the absence of Dr. Tenenbaum prescribing
pro-active treatment.
There are often situations in which the
immediate and long term health of patients who visit doctors could
benefit from modifications to their nutrition and lifestyle changes.
Licensed
naturopathic and homeopathic doctors could save Canada's public health
care system literally billions of dollars in preventive and proactive
approaches to personal health that many doctors don't practice. That
is, if naturopaths and homeopaths were covered by OHIP and other
provincial plans. Unfortunately, mostly professionals who have lots of
disposable income have the resources to explore such "alternative"
treatments.
Next time you speak to your family doctor, try to
mention taking multi-vitamins and other mineral supplements and you
might get a look in your face as if you started to talk about aliens or
some subject area.
The reason you might get such a look in your
face is that doctors across Canada don't make their money by suggesting
to you to modify nutrition and related lifestyle area. They make much
of their money by prescribing often harmful pills manufactured by Big
Pharma and "tests".
The more tests that doctors prescribe like
Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum, is the more money that doctors can then in turn
claim in public insurance money from various provincial healthcare
systems.
The next time you or a loved one are told that you need
to wait for an MRI or other hospital facilities, just think how the
apparent irresponsible practices of doctors like Dr. Jerry Tenenbaum may
have been responsible for your denial of hospital facilities or other
scarce medical resources.
