Don’t Trust Young Doctors or the Medical System

By September 24, 2024Commentary

I have been warning for some time about the wokeification of the American medical system.  As with all such ideological infestations, this one starts in academia, where medical students know focus more on diversity and equity than understanding health, disease, diagnosis and treatment.  They are taught to see patients not as individuals but as members of various groups.  Not surprisingly, poor outcomes are rising, particularly for patients of newer doctors and other health professionals.  The scope of the problem is hidden, as health systems have no incentive to reveal the problems, and the licensing boards will just cover it up.  The malpractice lawyers, however, must be salivating.  And here is an article on the curricula at leading medical schools.

The authors compared mentions of actual scientific or medical terms in course catalogs versus woke language.  The article notes the pervasiveness of DEI bullshit in every course.  Every American should do this examination of the medical schools’ course catalog and other material in their state.  You would be shocked.  Unless you think that being a whacked ideologue makes you a better doctor.  Indoctrination is replacing relevant medical knowledge.  And most health systems are encouraging this lunacy.  Patient beware and make sure you see older doctors or those who proactively reject the woke ideology.  (DNH Article)

    Going through the list of the 20 med schools
    Vanderbilt had 221 political terms vs 14 scientific/medical terms which was one of the highest ratios of political vs scientific terms.
    also of note is Vanderbilt has a somewhat aggressive transgender program.
