Scott Baio's Take On Life Episode 11 Going to the Doctor
Ойын-сауық
Does anyone like going to the doctor? Scott has maintenance appointments, like an extended warranty on his body. While filmmaker Mark Jones stays away from doctor visits to avoid potential bad news. Producer George Saadi remembers his father doing house calls. How has the doctor/patient relationship changed? Why does a prostate exam need a chaperone? Should we bring house calls back? Tune in to the new episode of Scott Baio’s Take On Life to get these answers, and hear Scott’s cure for scurvy.

Scott I remember when you were so stressed about getting married! Now look at you! ❤
Totally agree with Mark. No doctors unless an emergency, natural remedies are wonderful especially for maintenance. I suggested the cherries for my mother in laws arthritis and it has helped. Just remember, there isn’t money is keeping people well but there is plenty of money to be made in treatments (especially when treatments cause you to need other treatments to treat the problem the treatment caused).
I utterly agree with Mark Jones about Alternate Care. And Scott, I am a younger than you, but I have hated medical doctors ever since I was a young kid. The BEST doctor I ever had in my life was a Chiropractor. He was so good as a doctor, and a person, that he became a most blessed family-friend to my family and I. It was like this for us for about 5 years before my family moved out of state back in 2001. It's my only regret to this day, that due to life's fate, we had to leave him and his dear family behind when we moved out of state. Mark Jones, I'll be keeping in mind to what you said about the cherries for arthritis. Thank you.❤
My father was a neurologist, not a brain surgeon, but a neurologist. He was brilliant and died while practicing THE ART OF MEDICINE. He told me for years that medical students are only being taught to become diagnosticians, which is WRONG. Medicine is an art, and the best physicians practice it. He said, Scott, the best doctors work as teams." He had a team, including himself as the neurologist, a chiropractor, a physical therapist, and a massage therapist who worked together to treat their patients. He died on his way to work at 72 in 2014. He also made house calls in the Vail Valley. He had a bag of meds. My mother and her husband in Naples, Fl have had a concierge physicians since 1998. It can actually be less than insurance. You need both, but...it's much. better.

I'd love to listen to feedback on my comments that may agree or contrast with Scott's statements. I think many people are being held hostage to the state in which they reside largely due to health insurance. If I were to leave the State of Iowa, my medications would be restricted because Marijuana is the "cure all" in Florida for chronic pain caused by a genetic connective tissue disease. I don't want to use THC. I have a formula that's worked for 1o yrs, yet if I move, I likely will lose it.
I’m with Mark, alternative and naturopathic remedies are the best. Broken bone-go to a doctor.

Yep, me too!! ✋️
Scott was always pretty buff when he was younger, and he still looks like he’s in good shape. Maybe he should consider giving up the cigars though.
I have white coat bp readings too. My doctor loves it, he can play with my meds, but I always protest it too much now. Enough already.😂
The only doctor I go to is my orthopedic surgeon every 3 months for ex rays to make sure my replacements are OK. I've had bith my hips replaced, and my right knee replaced twice. He is the only dr I trust because he doesn't push drugs .
THANKS GUYS....PS I TEXT BIG CAUSE MY EYES ARE SHOT...IM NOT MAD AT ANYONE GREAT VID
My Dr made house calls but recently retired. We can get home care here but they usually send a visiting nurse. And it could take a few days to get an appointment. But it’s convenient for seniors & shut ins.
Loving your Vlogs , Scott!
Totally agree, Scott! House calls were great, but going to your Uncle's office isn't so bad.
That was entertaining 😊
I love my GP! She is thorough and kind. Also suggests different treatments. 😊
No doctors for me. They will always find something wrong especially as you get older. Do all natural. The tests and medicine are killing us. I agree with your friends Scott.
Sadly we live in such a dangerous world it would be dangerous for Doctors to make house calls.
I had that procedure at 36. It went by so fast, blink and you're back in the room. 😂
Loving this discussion u guys are great btw i dont like going to the dr either lol🌺🙏🏻🇨🇦
im with you mark! i never goto a doctor anymore
Mark is correct about allopathic meds, fluoride etc
I have white coat blood pressure too. I love you guys.
I feel the same way, I don't go to the Dr. unless I have an injury or something that forces me to go.
I knew it Scott! Right from the very first one of these videos, I have been saying, "Scott's smoking a Nub👍.
I had mine 3 weeks ago and man I didn’t like them waking me up. I have to do another colonoscopy next year. I had cancer near that area and my doctor told me she wanted me to get an colonoscopy.
George needs to be mic'd.
I remember house calls too. The Dr's office was in his house. If you were sick, he'd make a house call. He had his black bag & listened to your heart w his stethoscope. He'd phone in a prescription to the pharmacy & the pharmacy would deliver the medicine by placing it in the mailbox. Those were the days! My resting heart rate is also 48 or 49. I don't go to doctors. It's a waste of time & money. I'd rather take homeopathic remedies on the rare occasion that I get sick.
❤️
Stay away from doctors. You know your body & if it’s not broken don’t go looking for tests & problems because they will FIND something. Btw colonoscopies are not necessary, trust me, unless something is wrong w you just stay away. (Ex nurse here)

What would be an alternative to a colonoscopy to screen for colon cancer ?
Med Beds are coming out soon.
All of you talking about trying to stay in good health but yet your all smoking cigars
House calls in brooklyn yes
If you” don’t” go to the Dr ,let’s say 20 yrs ago. Now you feel something is not right. Let’s make up something, say consistent constipation . Now you have to go because you can’t bare the pain. The Dr gives you a colonoscopy and finds cancer, now What? So Dr says had you gone several years ago ,we may have been able to save your life. You should go for a check up and blood work once a year. If something shows, there’s a possibility to save your life.
A colonoscopy saved my life and my husbands...and btw they are now totally painless due to the sedation they give you. It is such a simple procedure now and if they find a polyp they just pull it right out during the process. No Pain. And when you get home you will walk fine just like on your way there. It's such a simple way to prevent colon cancer before it even starts. Seriously think it over.
And another bit of advice...save yourself some money with the infusions and drink some water with salt
Lol.. you guys. I am a nurse. I dont have a dr.
Colaguard do it yourself at home. No cameras and better price.
You go to the doctor.... it's there job to find something wrong with you.
My doc yelled at me until I gave in and got a colonoscopy,
Scott: For your back, joints, take Glucosamine Chondroitin daily.
Stem cell therapy Achieve Vitality
im looking for a natural doc
49 is not a good heart rate Scott. You have bradycardia
I Agree with you Scott i want to.bring back house calls when doctors came .To the house if someone got sick. im.italian and I lived in Italy Naples. Growing up My parents they just had to make a phone call and a doctor Would come to the house rhey still do this in Italy till this day. also the elderly have their doctor go to their home .we should have this Type of thing here in our country were doctors can go to someone's home if they are sick.not all.people can drive and move and mostly the elderly.
What do u guys think smoking cigars will do to ya, LOL! Just as toxic as cigarettes! Yes its true!! Ask ur Dr
How would buy 65 dollar lighter and of course Doesnt work ! Buy one from a dollar store and give rest charity that’s crazy buy light 65 dollars . Get matches for free , point is don’t waste money like that crazy. I agree with kojak stay away from doctors they’ll c9me up someth8ng that’s wrong with you
