You can blame the government for that.

if that's true, then i guess it's affirmative action at its' best. better share it with socialists and let them see the result of their "forced equality" ideals.

obviously we need more diversity in med

Can't wait until robots replace 75% of doctors. They are so overpaid and fucking awful.

Yeah, never go to a black doctor. If you are black all you have to do is not fail the MCAT and you're in

...

Waah! I'm a nurse and I only make over 100k a year! Give me more money! I was in school for like 3 years you know! We need more money so we can accidentally kill more people! Waah!

Just ignore Stefan and listen to the doc

>premed
Kek, any medical course will grind out retards like that, need to be careful around nurses though.

Had a Nigerian A&P prof. that would do his best to fuck with black and hispanic students until they either dropped out or shaped up.

>a man from FLORIDA
Nah there's your problem.

You're right, it's not because he's a nigger who got into the program because of affirmative action, my bad.

>RN
>100k a year

What the fuck are you smoking? Average nursing wages are 50-60k for RNs and maybe 100k for NPs. Nurses are often the ones who interact with the patients anyway.

As an RN I know that I've probably saved 3 or 4 patient's lives in my first year on the floor just by questioning medical orders from shitting street MDs anyway. Its fucking stupid.

You do realize anyone can say they are a first year pre-med student right?

Basically take English 101, bio 101 and maybe a pre-calc class and you are 'pre-med'.

Hell, pre-law is even worse, just take a bunch of liberal arts classes and bam you are in your first year of pre-law.

Nurse here. I'll defend most of my colleagues, but there are some people so fucking dumb I know they're gonna kill someone any day now.

They may get into med school. They don't graduate. Still sucks that they're taking spots for people who would use it, but the safeguards are at least still in place.

And yet that black guy probably was getting 10x more pussy than your average Asian/white pre med nerd.

RNs with specialization can get more than 100k

I am a software developer and I make software for healthcare. Now I hate doctors both as a private citizen and as an employee.

They should be third up against the wall when the revolution comes, right after politicians and lawyers.

>slav "software developer" (i.e. cyber criminal) hates productive members of society

>Yeah bro I came tipsy to work and accidentally gave like 800mg of codeine to this one dude
>lol he got fucked up yo! CODE BLUE HAHA

>go a gorillion dollars into debt
>get job as a doctor making a fraction of debt per year
>do everything correctly
>nurse read "150mg" as "1500mg"
>patient ded
>walk out to family and take the blame

I don't even know why I'm commenting, I don't really care about this subject, I just see the logic behind it all.

Of course if we'd raise taxes to all hell and implement universal healthcare, we could have flawless medical care!

It's ok, 90% of docs will be replaced by robots in about 20 years so it won't be a problem any more.

>Sup Forums discovers iatrogenics

oh boy here we go.

>broke ass failure, going to be living in a ghetto
>will probably die to gang violence while his peers are making bank, living in mansions, and fucking their hot gold digger wives
>"b-but at least he got some pussy in college"
Typical nigger logic. Live in the here and now, never think about the future

I wonder what percent of the malpractice is from Jewish doctors.

Why are you still focusing on acceptance rates? You do realize you have to graduate medical school and go through residency to be a practicing doctor right? Affirmative action students may be accepted to medical school at a disproportionately higher rate, but they sure as shit done graduate at the same disproportionate rate.

They pay a metric fuckin in malpractice insurance for that reason. Some fields in certain areas actually make shit money because they have to pay over half of their salary on the stuff

>sorry about operating on the wrong hip guy
>oops I operated on the wrong knee!

A friend who is a GP/family doctor told me that most of them don't have a clue about how certain drug combinations can fuck you up, and that the only people who really spend any amount of time studying stuff like that are pharmacists, who aren't really in a position to question the prescription anyway.

My GP was originally a fucking economics graduate, a maxilofacial surgeon I recently went to was a fucking dentist originally, most doctors sadly aren't House, or specialists in their field even.

bump for answers.

the ones that have a brother that's a jewish lawyer

Implying you even know how medicine works, fucking retard.

Nature of the job. In the best circumstances there will always be iatrogenic problems. Oh and by the way they're bringing in thousands of illiterate Pajeets who call themselves "doctors."

Medical mistakes is literally the third leading cause of death. Read the link.

Often people arrive already dead and there is nothing doctos can do, I bet there are a lot in that research.

Not that the research is very helpful anyway. No one funds that shit. It takes thousands of deaths before people realize two drugs will kill you if added together, if they ever do figure it out.

What does that's be to do with anything? Those would be listed as deaths from natural causes, not accidents.

Also parents are an ass and always blame the doctors for everything.

At least in America many dentists practice general dentistry before going into a specialty after deciding they prefer one area. You still need excellent class ranks and grades and test scores to be admitted. Not sure about britlands dental requirements but may not be fair to say your oral surgeon was a dentist first as though it's a bad thing.

>britland
>dentists

>sorry about the infection girlie
>I just don't like washing my hands lol

You think it's simple like that, but there are people who major in English and then go on to medical school.

English majors. They stopped thinking critically in middle school.

>he only people who really spend any amount of time studying stuff like that are pharmacists, who aren't really in a position to question the prescription anyway.

I don't know how things work in the UK but here in America that is literally the primary function of the pharmacist. Hospitals have clinical pharmacists who review every order the doctors make.
