The doctors and nurses only care about you paying for the procedure outside of that they a cold and seem unknowledgeable.

If you had such an encounter with one or two of them, specify and stop generalizing. It's people like you who make work difficult for them and come online to say despicable things about them. It took them years of sleepless nights and hardwork to be able to help. Someone makes one or two mistakes and you look at the rest of them through the eyes of that mistake, it's not fair. Try attending a med school or nursing school and care for yourself if it's that easy🙄
