Good grief.
The hand held "echo cardiogram" is free and the $800 echo is a waste...right?
Sorry cardiologist, I'd rather have the $500,000 ultrasound machine run by the technician who does 6 of these a day, that has the images read and interpreted by a board-certified radiologist.....then he tells the cardiologist what he sees.
Sorry, good medicine costs money.
If you think Big Pharm is out to get you...I don't know what to tell you. It's like arguing with a Flat Earth proponent....just can't get anywhere.
