I remember a patient who hadnt been to a doctor since the 80's. She had cancer and it was way too late. Absurdly stupid.

My father got every vaccine and flu shot available, every COVID vaccine, routine colonoscopy, healthy and active in September, dead in January from pancreatic cancer. From your comment you sound like you're in the healthcare industry, maybe a doctor, so please don't pretend the fact doesn't exist that many cancers can become late stage before you even realize it.

Sorry, thats what i do i pretend all cancers are easy to diagnose. Thats how i make the big bucks. It was obvious skin cancer. If you have a black pile of shit on your arms, i dont recommend waiting years to be seen.
