The Dangers of TV Medical Providers
•
Andy
We are always amazed watching TV. What used to be ads for car companies, beer, clothes, products are not proliferated by ads for drugs and companies seeking to sell you drugs. These companies, like Hims and Hers, are willing to provide you with drugs to help everything under the sun, whether your obesity, hair loss, anxiety, ED, or infections. No need to see a doctor now, just get on line, chat with an AI doc, and buy the recommissioned drugs sold by the company, and you are all set. Once again, drugs can be had on the cheap, real medical care evaporates in the wake of easy access, and more harm and cost flood the system. Hear as Alan and Andy discuss this disturbing new trend in healthcare.
