A recent study by the Loyola University Health System demonstrated that a simple bedside exam by a doctor could be more accurate than a CT scan in deciding which patients would need to return to the operating room to treat complications from a surgery.
So not only is it cheaper and easier to be physically examed by your doctor, but it could also be more successful than getting these high-tech tests done. This is why it’s so important that we connect with our doctors on a regular basis. Then they’d be more familiar with our medical history and health problems. Thus, it would be easier for them to detect problems that maybe even these machines can’t. In the long run, this seems to be the healthier and more economical solution to our medical problems.
