Patients and Practice

Posted by Tripp Taylor on 9:03 PM

I was thinking today and I know it has been asked in various places before but I was curious on your take of it.


Why is the profession of a doctor called a practice? Wouldn’t you think the guy you pay a lot of money to be a professional? I would hope so. You got get your hair cut you go to a stylist or a barber, very few go to someone practicing cutting hair.

This bothered me.

Why is the person going to the doctor called a patient…? WHO IS patient going to the doctor? I want in and out I am very impatient when I go.

Who has something to comment on this? I would like to know what you think or is this all awkward to only me.
