It's far worse than people know. Medical error IS the THIRD leading cause of death in the U.S. Third leading cause of death- Medical error, medical mal practice. And people trust them with anything let alone their health and LIFE. Third leading cause of death. I am very thankful for emergency medicine. They care nothing for prevention, their diagnostics like to catch things when you are at deaths door before they treat, and their treatments mask or side step symptoms and do not truly cure the cause. Nature has a remedy for everything and prevention is truly where its at!!!
