To the Dermatologist Skin Care isn’t What it Used to Be
Like that episode of Seinfeld, you’ve often noticed how when you go to an airport to catch a flight, the treatment you get as a coach passenger is acceptable most of the time, but the civilities are slowly eroding. When you call the airline as a coach passenger, you get an automated voicemail maze; the first-class people get a real person to talk to right away; they get a soft-lit luxurious waiting lounge at the airport with free drinks and peanuts; you’re lucky if you get a metal chair,sticky with someone else’s popcorn, and fluorescent lighting shining in your face. So, go on, make someone’s day with an exquisite Flower Delivery Toronto today. If you ever noticed recently, at any clinic run by a dermatologist, skin care patients usually get coach treatment; the dermatologists act like the customers who wait for their appointments over at the luxury annexe are the real patients.
If you haven’t guessed who those lucky “real patients” are, who get the kid-glove treatment, they are the ones who come in for cosmetic dermatology – not for the suppurating psoriasis and acne like the rest of us. The doctors are pretty matter-of-fact about the whole deal. Legitimate skincare issues get paid for by health insurance – a fixed sum that cuts the dermatologist’s margin down as far as it will go. Send flowers across the Canada by way of our Toronto Flower Delivery service.
Dermatologist skin care for cosmetic purposes, Botox, skin plumping and so on, get paid for at the market rate – they make a lot more money on this. And of course, everyone pays more attention to the cash cow.
The second-rate treatment that genuine skin care patients get, goes all the way. They find it harder to get an appointment, there may or may not be a proper receptionist for pre-treatment counseling, they never get to spend as much time with the doctor, and it becomes impossible to re-schedule an appointment.
