    There's many types of doctors, they don't all perform surgeries or prescribe medicine!

    Re: why don't we called doctors ?

    On one hand a recent JAMA study revealed that medical treatment is the leading cause of mortality in North America.

    On the other hand, long term degenerative diseases are influencing poor quality of life,

    and on the other hand, we still stick to Toxic therapies to overcome our health problems???

    Time to overhaul the entire system, and standardize the level of education required for Physios.
