Dr. Drew Podcast, Medical Profession Inertia

On a recent podcast, Dr. Drew and his guests discussed the decline of independent clinical judgment in the medical profession. They argued that doctors have become "inertia-driven" and fearful of deviating from institutional orthodoxy, particularly regarding early treatments like Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine. The conversation suggests that medical training now prioritizes following hierarchical protocols over clinical improvisation.
