🩺 Dr.@LeeMerritt : “Why We Can’t Reform Medicine — We Must Escape” Orthopedic surgeon and former Navy doctor Dr. Lee Merritt pulls back the curtain on the deeper problems in organized medicine. She argues that many failures aren’t just mistakes, greed, or bureaucracy — they’re part of a much older pattern. From outdated Vitamin D recommendations (10,000 IU needed vs. the official 600 IU) to retracted Lancet/NEJM papers on hydroxychloroquine based on fake data, to historical influences on dietary guidelines (sugar industry paying scientists to blame saturated fats). Dr. Merritt traces medicine’s symbolic roots to ancient traditions centered around Apollo — historically associated with poisons and plagues, not healing. She points out these symbols persist today in medical logos, software (Apollo), publishing (Pergamon), and even the Hippocratic Oath. Her conclusion: The current medical matrix is built on narrative control more than pure science. Real change doesn’t come from reforming the system — it comes from walking away and taking personal responsibility for your health. At GoldCare, patients and physicians are doing exactly that — seeking truth, root causes, and real solutions outside the broken model. Subscribe and share ➡️➡️ @DrSimoneGoldLA
