One of the most rewarding parts of being a primary care physician is when I am able to work with a patient to help them find answers to unexplained symptoms they have been dealing with, sometimes for years!

The US Healthcare System vs…….South Park ?!?! I have to admit that I’ve never watched an episode of South Park. However, this clip was sent to me by another Direct Primary Care (DPC) doctor, and I thought that it was well done and that it deserved to be shared! Although the medical focus of this video is obesity, I was intrigued by the other highlighted theme – the endless spool of red tape in healthcare.

Summary Transcript Summary “Anxiety is a lot like a toddler. It never stops talking, tells you you’re wrong about everything, and wakes you up at 3 a.m.” I’m not sure who wrote this quote, but it feels right to me.

By John A. Gilbert & Karla L. Palmer — For more than 50 years, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has enforced the central mandate of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) to maintain a closed chain of distribution for drugs with a potential for abuse and diversion.
