Why might a person go to a specialist instead of a family doctor

Health

Licemer1 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Because the specialist will treat a specific problem in a more complete, less generalized, specific and aggressive way.

Explanation:

Capable of caring for patients from birth, family doctors can deal with up to 80% of health problems. The central idea of this specialty is to know and accompany the patient for life, which resembles the figure of the trusted doctor. The doctor who does residency in family medicine can accompany, for example, children, perform gynecological and urological preventions and, if necessary, refer the patient to a specialist.

However, a family doctor is a general practitioner who often does not have the knowledge and practice to treat a specific and more dangerous problem. In such cases, it is common for people to seek medical attention from a specialist. Because the specialist will treat a specific problem in a more complete, less generalized, specific and aggressive way.

The family doctor knows us for many years and continuously following his old medical treatment procedure with us which might not be any value to us but going for a specialist is the conservative first approach treatment rather a aggressive treatment.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

This borders on the ridiculous, as the title is an academic title that signifies achievement in a field of study; it is not a license. Doctoral degrees are awarded in just about every field of study, from astronomy to zoology. Physicians are awarded a doctor of medicine, dentists are awarded a doctor of dental science, and so it goes. In health care, there are dentists, psychologists, social workers, physical therapists, pharmacists, and yes, nurses too, with doctoral degrees. Nurses have been earning PhDs and EdDs (doctorates in education) and the DNSc (doctorate in nursing science) for years, and now there’s a new nursing doctorate degree—a DNP, doctor of nursing practice—that’s specific to nurses in clinical practice. They are still licensed as nurses, as that’s what they are.

This parochial thinking is held by those physicians (not all, but far too many) who still adhere to the traditional view that they, and they alone, know what’s best for patients and for health care; they’re in favor of teamwork, but only as long as the team recognizes that they are the leaders and decision makers.

Both the media and the health care system bear some responsibility for this. The system itself is physician-centric rather than patient-centric—hospital policies, practitioner admitting privileges, purchasing (especially in the OR), and scheduling have often developed around physician preferences; reimbursements almost always must go through physicians, whether or not they’re actually involved in the delivery of care.

arlik [135]

Answer:

4: ask her to postpone her shift to the afternoon.

Explanation:

i would choose this answer because it would be reasonable to let them see if they become sicker throughout the day or just to see if they feel or know they're better by then, doing this decreases anybodys chance of getting sick or.. prevents the food worker from having any health issues at work! i hope this helped you.
