I speak up when physicians suddenly are doing tests and charging more or doing tests that aren't necessary or doing tests in their offices that were usually performed at outside facilities such as Holter Monitors. Our doctor's aid put one on me and admitted he had not done it before. Several leads fell off before the 24 hours was up. We paid for the test but it wasn't really giving us all the info. I left another physician here who hired someone to do tests on blood flow to the legs. I hadn't had any problem with blood flow to my legs.
Most people know me as a champion of traditional medicine but I have never had to be wary of any practices by physicians until I moved to Florida. There isn't a large teaching hospital nearby and we often get doctors in this area that nobody else is begging for. I freely admit that it was a charge that Mr. Kidd could easily afford and it wasn't much but it is the principle of the thing. As we age we spend more time and money visiting physicians. We don't want the cheapest, we want the best and we want not to waste our money on people looking to gouge be it groceries or physicians.
