I don't want anyone to have to suffer mental disorders, but I am happy to see men going in and asking for mental health help. I think too many don't because they feel it's them admitting they are weak, and in reality, I think asking for help, shows strength. I do like in general a lot of patients that see those care providers feel comfortable enough to bring up mental health struggles.
I live in the US, but even I know that there have been major cuts in NHS funding. Reduction in funding has caused many doctors to leave GP practice, shorter time allotted with the doc and longer wait times. If these things make you mad then contact your local MP. I live in the States and both my son and I have chronic health issues (mine orthopedic and his mostly autoimmune). We pay $700.00 per month for family coverage (which is low). We meet my deductible of $7500.00 and my son’s deductible of $6,000.00 every year. This doesn’t take into account all of the prescription costs. And yes, even with my husband and I working full time, we really struggle to get by. In the nicest way possible - please stop complaining and fund the NHS. You are so blessed.
@@B_27 I’m sure you’re right that it’s the people who have the money to hire private doctors. Then they can say, “See. The NHS doesn’t work!” and make some more money. But it takes everyone to make that turn around. 🙂 Of course, I’m not from the UK, so it’s not my place to say. Truly. The situation in the US feels so hopeless that I look to places like the UK and Canada and hope that you can keep the wonderful healthcare that you have.
@@B_27 But don’t the citizens vote for the people in your government? The same citizens who use NHS? I’m confused. That’s how we do it in the US and I thought it was the same in the UK. Except that the citizens in the US don’t care about universal healthcare.
@@yvonnetruelove2270 I'm not from the UK but if their politicians are anything like those in Australia (where I'm from) the differences between the major parties are about as shallow as a puddle. Also, I'm sure you're aware that the policies used to gain votes are not always the same as those which are actioned. To put it simply, politicians lie.
My PCP schedules for 15 but if he runs over, he runs over by only a little bit. My Specialists (and I have many) schedule for 20 minutes but they always run over and are behind. That's OK to me because I know they'll spend time with me when it's my turn.
A standard GP appointment in Australia is pretty short but if you have a lot of complex things going on, the GP will often see you for a longer appointment of 20 min. I take a list to my 20 min appointment so we get everything done. Some doctors freak out if you have a lot of things going on, but my GP is pretty good!
Actually not true. England has some of the worst health in the world and they all have access to some type of health care. No one can see a specialist without seeing a GP first, unless they want to pay cash for the appointment. Iceland has some of the best healthcare access, but more than 50% of their income goes to pay for it. The reality of socialized medicine is that someone has to pay for it. NHS has been pretty much bankrupt. More than 90% of their healthcare is done by GPs because they want people to avoid specialists.
In America if we visited doctors with rashes, scraps, sore joints, colds, etc., we'd be thousands of dollars in debt. So we don't see a doctor for these sorts of things. We have to be half dead to afford healthcare, that is if we're under 65 yrs old. I had an allergic reaction and had to go to emergency. That visit charged $28,000.00. Because I'm over 65 and have Medicare I didn't have to pay that entire cost. I hope you British people appreciate your NH care. I love your shows!
Wow this 10 minute thing I know it’s what has to happen. But as an RN of over 30yrs I can see so much being missed & having such a bad pt experience. I realize it’s not the physicians fault. But dang it’s purely assembly line medicine
Actually in the US, most insurance companies have an expectation that the physicians will spend no more than 10 or 15 minutes with each patient. But the docs in the US seem to be less organized and focused during those 10-15 minutes, perhaps because they are trying to work within the scope of insurance regulations and ICD codes.
10-15 appt to tell me no more pain meds, no antibiotics, nothing he can do for peeling finger tips ,that get so sore I can't type, nothing to do about scalp pain that started with shingles, nope can't do a thing. WHY DID I EVEN GO.
I can relate to that woman that has trigger finger, I get that. It doesn't hurt, it just feels uncomfortable and is annoying. I also find it feels creepy. It happens a lot when I'm writing.
Get that child out moving with mom Not sending him to a fat classes. This is about whole family healthy habits Not the child alone. Children don’t make themselves fat, it’s the whole families poor habits that lead to an over weight child. Putting all that on the child is going to severely damage their mental health and they’ll likely still struggle with the weight the rest of their life. Whole family healthy habit building is what will stick for the child long term.
The poor overweight kid. Any time mom thought the doctor was talking about her, she started to get defensive. And her middle was almost as wide as the doorway! He can't maintain a healthy lifestyle living in a home where food choices aren't good. You can bet that a lot of fried food and bad carbs are consumed there.
That overweight child/young man is never going to be able to lose weight if his mom (parents) aren't willing to make the change with and for him. And mom could stand to lose weight herself. Hopefully one of those weight loss programs can convince the mom to change.
Zachary's doctor should have taught his mom how to put eyedrops in the eye without simply dropping them in. It would be much easier for little Zachary to tolerate. Also, to decrease his rubbing his eye, put a cold cloth over the eye. That will reduce the pain and irritation.
I find that if you put a cup of powdered milk, in your bath or a little in a cup and sponge bath is itchy parts the powdered milk seems to sooth and stop itching for me anyway and it helps with my eczema, I don’t know about other itches
Raw milk If available also works extremely well mixed into bath water for eczema or other irritated skin. Same with oats in a stocking to keep them from making s mess in your Tun. Squeeze the stocking and the goey starch water that comes out is very soothing for skin.
It is MAT - medically assisted treatment. People are more often successful in beating addiction when they receive MAT as MAT prevents the horrific withdrawal suffering.
NHS is barely surviving as it is and you want them to buy lollies or toys for kids who behave - kids don't need lollies to begin with, nothing wrong with giving them a sticker, NHS can barely afford those I'm sure. And why do we need to reward children for good behavior, just teaching them if they are good they will be rewarded, nope they need to be good because they need to learn how to behave well without being rewarded
That's pretty cheap in comparison to Australia like 4- 500 for most specialist and drs in my area are between 80-$150 u get a small amount back from Medicare
At least you don't have people saying "I can't go to the doctor for this problem...I don't have insurance" or 'we are losing our house because of medical bills" like you see in the USA!
10 minutes is ridiculous, you cannot treat a patient on a timeline. Some take more time to work with. I guess that is what happens when they don’t use health insurance.
That's hilarious. Every doctor in the usa I've ever seen gives you the rush too. And you wait an hour in the waiting room. I'm one of those people who has seen both systems. I'm abeyance but lived in England from 1995 -2008. I would pick so called 'socialized" Healthcare every time. And I have several health conditions and my husband had two operations while we were there
@Feisty Shlomit I haven’t had to declare bankruptcy. I have a friend in Canada and he complained about the healthcare system up there. That it takes a long time to get into see a specialist. Also, we have had children come to St Louis Children’s hospital and Cardinal Glennon Children’s hospital for treatment that Canada deemed unnecessary or experimental and without the treatment here in the United States they would have died. In 10 minutes something could very easily be overlooked. It just seems so rushed and being on a time limit like that has to be like a factory assembly line.
He said he couldn't smoke in jail, but when she asked if that's where he got the cigarette burns he said yes. Then she said they bullied you & he said yes. Then tried to backtrack saying it (he) wasn't bullied, that it was better (easier) than being out of jail.... Was he burning himself? I think he was. I couldn't tell if the doctor didn't catch on or if she made the choice to ignore it & just let whoever he ends up seeing for his mental health deal with it. 🤔
ffff that was disguting first thing out of the gate yuck and the guy from jail "get a life" the reason you are feeling down is becasue you keep fffing up just stop and life will get better. Surroudn yourself with good people not over dramatic low lifes

I am so fortunate that my primary care physician can spend more than 10 minutes at my appointments
Lol my pre and post op appointments are shorter 10 min or less and only once out of 4 times did they even examine me 🙃 and this was with a specialist!
My PCP schedules for 15 but if he runs over, he runs over by only a little bit. My Specialists (and I have many) schedule for 20 minutes but they always run over and are behind. That's OK to me because I know they'll spend time with me when it's my turn.
Same, I get 15-30 min appointments depending on what I'm going for.
It's more than people who couldn't otherwise afford medical care get.
Shame on the UK government for underfunding health care
A standard GP appointment in Australia is pretty short but if you have a lot of complex things going on, the GP will often see you for a longer appointment of 20 min. I take a list to my 20 min appointment so we get everything done. Some doctors freak out if you have a lot of things going on, but my GP is pretty good!
Excellent that the man who was recently released from jail was given a prescription that helps people with substance use disorder.
Everybody having healthcare makes for a healthier, happier society…nothing wrong with that!

I'm in the USA Midwest and my doctor spends at least 15 minutes with me, then a colleague comes in and goes over things again. I honestly feel glad!

@@ericasabinske6735 in the usa most kids are taught letter names instead of sounds first. Really messes them up to!

Wondering if this channel has done stories about CHS? thanks
In the US a standard appointment is 30mins or an hour, depending on which one I book in the My Chart App.
I have my chart and it's always 10-15
Mine are always 45 min to an hour. I’ve even had a few hour and a half’s.

10 minutes!?...its drive thru medical treatment.....
I don't understand why they don't have lollies or little toys for the kids who behave. Stickers aren't really that much of an incentive or a reward.

For $40 copay for a gp and $80 for a specialist I make sure I take all the time I need.
That's pretty cheap in comparison to Australia like 4- 500 for most specialist and drs in my area are between 80-$150 u get a small amount back from Medicare
yikes this is the same care as WITH insurance…..minimal procedures….
