I miss that doctor’s ‘touch’

where how important hugs are is discussed, it took me to another issue about how different doctors are these days.

Gone are those touches, those examinations which gadgets have now taken over.  That closeness with doctors is sadly missing.  I remember those days when each family had a doctor who was friendly and supportive and even concerned

We now have gadgets to check our own BP doing away with doctors who used their stethoscope to measure that. And this is one of the several gadgets that have done away with doctors. ..

  • Do you miss your doctor’s friendly touch?

    • Yes
    • No

  1. My doctor is too concerned about me and I’d like him to keep his distance. LOL Okay don’t get too many ideas its just my son.

    • I have more than one doctor and each of them takes care of different parts of my body. Yes I have one who I talk to as a friend but all of them resort to scans and what have you

  2. Over here, we aren’t yet technologically advanced. The gadgets are also expensive. Thus, we still receive a doctor’s touch.
