Quote by Popper Péter
English (Source)
Industrial hospital or clinic medicine works like a large-scale auto repair shop. There are specialists here and there. In the repair shop, there are motor fitters, body fitters, electrical fitters, upholsterers, polishers, etc. The hospital has cardiologists, internists, endocrinologists, laryngologists, surgeons, etc. They take action depending on what the problem is. The center of their interest is the diseased organ. The person himself is devalued into a case of the diseased organ. It includes a malfunctioning heart or kidney. And the case should not have excessive personal needs. Accordingly, a good patient is someone who is modest, adaptable, looks at the "professional" with sufficient reverence, and can be cured in a routine manner. A worse patient who causes problems and headaches. And the incurable patient is the outcast of medicine.
