The other thing I forgot to mention about the carcinoma...I had been to a Murfreesboro dermatologist about it in 2023. She said it didn't need to be biosied and just gave me some ointment...which obviously didn't work. The Thai dermatologist took one look and in about 30 seconds knew it needed to be biopsied.

Absolutely no evidence of DEI, but it’s a reflex response for some of you…

OK great. You want black doctors? We will license all the black doctors you select for us, but the only requirement is that these black doctors that you select treat ONLY black patients.
You can have as many black doctors as you want now, bae.

Not sure why people are downvoting the posts in this thread. Our health care system has serious problems. One of which is the fact that there are many third worlders with phony degrees working in it. I am old enough to remember when this was a respected Nashville hospital.
Don't even get me started with what I see coming out of the VA!

It will continue to get worse. There will be nothing but jeet doctors.

Lots of lawyer answers in your post. Techs put out the pills and the pharmacist double counts them from time to time. Everyone has a duty to double check their work. The medical industry has been hiring halfnwits for a while dirt cheap instead of educated people.
When you drive over a bridge do you want wig wearing 5th grade educated person making tension and sag numerical decisions as well as strength of materials? We need those wig wearers because pharmacists cost too much money to hire more and they do their jobs with care. Even for the lawyer loaded medical industry which is the biggest lobbyists in the world.
Time to cut 50% of the medical industry out and pay the qualified people to do their jobs. The second the damned government got involved in medicine it went to shite with DEI hires and leftists strong arming who is caring for patients.

It may or may not be DEI, but DEI is associated with a drop of quality. To even have to have this question raised is a major problem.

It’s rare to see an Ascension facility in a nice area of town. They also have a skilled division of facilities. They are Medicaid payer heavy, and their bureaucracy is a lot like a government bureaucracy.

Yep, the globalization of our medical delivery system is descending on us. My daughter is an RN and a darned good one. She was informed by her healthcare company that layoffs are in the works. This follows an annoucement about six months ago, her healthcare company was allocating part of their workload to foreigners. It's all about profit now.
I'll say it. All of this idiocracy going on in healthcare is the result of obamacare and the creation of these healthcare companies. All of them worshiping at the altar of obamacare subsidies. I'm watching the best healthcare delivery system in history be destroyed by the policies put in place by one empty suit named Barook Hussein Obama.
Don't ignore massive fraud as well. I darned near died, because my cardiologist was running all these expensive test, billing my HMO, then telling me everything was okay and sent me home. I trusted him and my general practicioner. I now realize they were in cahoots. I wonder how many other crooked doctors are stealing the system blind?
Apparently, my HMO knew of the fraud because they announced they were pulling their coverage out of my state. My former employer informed me they were switching to another HMO with a completely new set of doctors including a new family doctor. Most likely, that move saved my life. The morning I was scheduled for an appointment with my new family doctor, my BP shot up to 190/110. My new family doctor confirmed my B/P and after lecturing me on the danger of untreated hypertension, immediately sent me to a new cardiologist who put me on B/P medicine.
Yep, I had chronic hypertension, and that crooked cardiologist did not treat me for the condition.
Thankfully I always kept myself in reasonability good shape - an avid jogger. In hindsight, prolly saved my life.

Understatement of the millennium. That Hospital System is bent over with their checkbook out - begging for mercy. They should receive none. I'd bet good money they knew they were functioning in a less than optimal capacity, but did it anyway to save a buck.
If so, the entire hospital administration should get chucked and replaced virtually overnight.

It's a canary in the coalmine type of situation. A societal issue that we've* created through good intentions. *I say (we) because unfortunately we all share in the result of these policies.*
A high school diploma used to be a pretty good minimum standard by which to qualify for most jobs. OJT (on the job training) is possible within a society that has decent standards. The erosion of those standards has created a competency void among a large swathe of the population.
We're not just dealing with incompetent people, but unmotivated and undisciplined people. This particular problem is just one of many instances of the bigotry of low expectations. If we don't start holding people within these institutions (academia and government) accountable, then we will suffer many more instances of malpractice within all spheres of society.
Here's a good video that illustrates the many problems.

I see nothing -so far- in the healthcare system’s pr statements that indicates remorse, regret, apology, responsibility.
I understand their corporate legal is certainly advocating against any kind of statement that construes to liability and/or culpability but come on - that ship has sailed on this one.
Heads should roll and someone should experience incarceration…
