Doctors

Healthy adults should get a checkup every two years. The exception is that once a person reaches 50 years of age, they should get a checkup every year, even if healthy. People taking medications or with health conditions should get them as often as recommended by their physician.

Typically medical specialists called urologists focus on most matters of a man's reproductive and urinary health. A related field is called Reproductive endocrinology.

A doctor may decide that there is "nothing which can be done" if the problems are too numerous and additional attempts to help may only cause additional harm. This would not be decided in isolation; a doctor would consult with other specialists before ever reaching this decision. Additionally, this would never be the final answer; the doctor would probably say "I can't help you, but here are the names of a few specialists who might be able to assist."

Doctors also (should) know their limitations. Sometimes, a problem, or a conglomeration of problems, is better left to specialists. Osteopaths (DOs) are doctors with specialized training to understand health issues within the framework of a systemic approach to health. A general practice doctor may refer a patient to a DO, or an internal medicine specialist, if a conglomeration of issues is better handled by one of them. I don't think I'd categorize that as a refusal to treat, however. It's a point at which a doctor knows that the best care for the patient can be achieved by someone more specialized.

Ultimately, a doctor will try to the best of his ability, to help. "First, do no harm" as the colloquial shortening of the beginning of the Hippocratic Oath is said.

Yup, Just had two last month. It just depends on what medicine it is and if it needs to be administered into fatty tissue or not.

Urologists treat the prostate.

These healthcare plans are called PPOs (preferred provider organizations), as opposed to HMOs.

Of course, if you are in a fee for service plan or "private pay" (just pay yourself), then you may also choose any doctor you wish, at any time.

A doctorate degree in any subject is otherwise known as "Doctor of Philosophy" or "PhD". Then the discipline in which it is achieved can be stated so for eg: A PhD in Psychiatry. ____ That is so in England and Wales. In many countries the subject is specified (more or less) and in that case a person with a doctorate in psychiatry would be an MD - doctor of medicine.

Early definitions of health focused on illness. Health was considered as nothing more than absence from disease. As medical and health experts received better training, they began to focus on prevention of illness and disease as well as treatment of people who were already sick.

A urologist is surgery subspecialist who operates on the urinary tract, kidneys, prostate, bladder, etc. They also manage nonsurgical problems of the urinary tract such as infections, overactive bladder, etc. A nephrologist is a specialty of internal medicine who takes care of medical diseases of the kidneys such as nephritis, failing kidneys. Also they run dialysis. Similar to the difference between a cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist.

There are about 455,000 US physicians (which I presume is a dermatologist according to the webpage) and 52% are men and 48% are women.

Usually to become an X-ray technician you must go to a college for 2 years which is an associates degree. But personally I would pick a new career because that career has too many people. To many schools. In reality they only want your money. Also they are sexist against males.

When calling in a prescription, a prescriber needs to give the pharmacy the patient's name and date of birth, the prescriber's name and appropriate license and/or DEA numbers, and office location. Then they give the typical prescription information: the medication, strength, number of pills or amount of liquid, and the directions for taking the medication, and number of refills. They need to let the pharmacist know if it's OK to fill generically.

Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) and Doctors of Medicine (M.D.) are both full-fledged physicians trained in the United States who attend four years of medical school and are eligible to specialize in any field of medicine after residency training. In short, Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine get to work with Doctors of Medicine in a hospital because both DOs and MDs are physicians qualified to work in a hospital.

Additionally, both DOs and MDs may sit for board certification examinations and each type of physician has the same legal and medical responsibilities such as prescribing medications, performing surgery, working in the hospital, medical diagnosis, etc. The difference between a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine and Doctor of Medicine is a slight one-Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine, in addition to the standard medical curriculum, receive 300-500 hours of instruction in a form of manual therapy known as osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM). This form of therapy is another approach sometimes used by DOs to address a patient's musculoskeletal issues. In short, they're both physicians performing the same job.

12+ years.

A big part of that is where you work for example if you are a Doctor working in U.S.A. expect to make some big bucks im talking 200-400 dollars an hour if not more. I've heard that some doctors get like 800,000 a year in America but then ive also heard than they get taxed big time like sometime 200,000 a year even 300,000. Canadian doctors don't make near that much money but still get 100,000 to 200,000 a year which is still a great salary. I don't really know about anywhere else and don't take my word for it because I've just heard this from people and from my friend who is becoming a doctor is Canada.

I am not a medical doctor.

No, unless the a patient is in a coma or the parents told the doctor not to tell the minor child

This greatly depends on the issue. If you ASK for information on the topic, and the doctor refuses to grant you the information - this is illegal. However, a doctor might simply not even tell you (if you didn't ask, he doesn't have to tell you).

The name tells you what they do. Path- = disease + -olog- study + -ist one who. They are people who study diseases.

In 1964, the Surgeon General's report announced medical research showing that smoking was a definite cause of cancers of the lung and larynx (voice box) in men and chronic bronchitis in both men and women. Later reports concluded that smoking causes a number of other diseases such as cancers of the bladder, esophagus, mouth and throat; cardiovascular diseases; and reproductive effects. Today's new report, The Health Consequences of Smoking: A Report of the Surgeon General, expands the list of illness and conditions linked to smoking. The new illnesses and diseases are cataracts, pneumonia, acute myeloid leukemia, abdominal aortic aneurysm, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, cervical cancer, kidney cancer and periodontitis.

They examine the body inside and out and determine the cause of death. If it was a murder or suspicious then they work with a coroner to resolve what happened. They can also serve as an expert witness in court...hope this helped

There really is not one, at least not in the most specific sense. A Physiatrist cares for the musculoskeletal system, but then so do physical therapists and massage therapists. If you need testing or diagnosis, you will need to see the medical doctor. For treatment of the muscular system, however, you will need the services of other health care professionals. In my experience, you cannot beat the hands-on skill of an experienced (and licensed) massage therapist.

Good question. I'm assuming that you are looking to make a fake cast for fun - not actually treat an injury. treating an injury incorrectly, without proper x-rays and expertise will result in permanent problems.

Making the cast should be easy. Just go to a hardware store, pick up some plaster of Paris, and follow the directions. It would probably work best of you get roller gauze form the pharmacy and run it through the plaster of Paris before wrapping it around the limb and letting it dry.

The tricky part will be getting back off. With real casts they wrap the limp with later of bandage to keep the plaster way from the skin. The real problem will be breaking the plaster. Medical saws used for this vibrate and so not cut skin. Do not use a regular saw as you will cut yourself. Using a hammer to break the plaster may result in the need for a genuine cast. I

I would suggest making it look real with thick layers of cloth bandage topped by a thin layer of plaster. You also could consider just using an ace bandage and painting it white.
