Yes I remember the Doctors but in these days it would no longer be safe and too many patients. They can have over a thousand each. Also they won’t perform surgery less it was a emergency maybe but call a ambulance. From what I remember they only appeared with epidemics like measles going around. Usually not emergencies. They had a schedule. Perhaps it was also to prevent the spread to the sick from other things in the doctor office or hospitals.
I remember no doctor came when I fell over hit my chin requiring stiches at age 4. I remember being in the car going there. Theses days they’d numb the child but those days they stitched me up without anesthesia. I remember that too lol
There’s always someone who can beat you in the torture although had another at 11 in a veterans hospital from a severe cut in my foot. Someone I knew told me even worse he had his tonsils taken out on his parents kitchen table and was conscious.
We can’t always look at the costs. Another nurse told me at a veterans she went to after a dog bit her in the face that they put rubbing alcohol on it and kept it there. She said they told her if she didn’t stop screaming they’d put her in the closet. She wound up in the closet.
It wasn’t ALL GOOD in those days. They even operated on babies without anesthesia saying they won’t remember it anyways. That’s severe abuse and pain can stop hearts.
There’s better things for arthritis now too. Bag balm was frequently used for things too. Lots of advancement now that weren’t there then. We just don’t need greed in gouging prices to hold people hostage.
