The article basically talked about a man who is name was Evan Mckinley a fit and strong man who had chest pains. Then the doctor as questions about Mckinley, felt his chest, took some tests and came up with the conclusion that Mckinley normal. Then dismissed Mckinley without even consider other problems, as to his chest pain.
This article, sum up everything that should be known about a doctor. I mean doctors are like everyone else, the judge their patient without even considering other possibilities.
The funny thing about this article is that the doctor who saw Mckinley was a man who did a lot of studies about doctors misdiagnoses. He stated “I missed it because my thinking was overly influenced by how healthy this man looked, and the absences of risk factors”. I actually feel sorry for Croskerry, when he stated that quote. He actually mad a mistake that could have ruined Mckinley ranger life.
You know what I give a lot of he props to doctors and nurses, because they have to make a decision so fast that, that decision can either be wrong or right. One bad mistake can destroy their patient lives.
I honesty would not be able to live with my self knowing that I ruined somebody’s life due to my error of judgment. I guess that why god made us some doctors and other ordinary people. The well the integrity that it takes for a doctor is unspoken of.
For instance, my younger sister surgeon doctor Reing, safe my sister life by making a quick decision to operate on her, because due to the sever ness of the scoliosis, the lungs would be crushed together.
