This has been a thing for a while. Also, I'd rather have them realize they don't know and look up an answer than guess. I'm happy with doctors being professional "cheaters," but we have to get with the times.
I've had doctors literally Google right In front of me and then base their treatment plan directly off what they find on their screen.
Like, why am I paying you $80 bucks for this?
Its dangerous because not only is it lazy but it sets a bad example for a patient who gets the impression that it's perfectly ok to do this themselves too rather than see a doctor.
You know that meme that goes, "Don't equate your Google search with my medical degree?" An even better one would be, "Don't equate your Google search with my Google search."
By virtue of their years of training and practice, doctors are much more equipped to handle not only knowing what to search for but also how to recognize reputable sources and evidence-based recommendations. With the amount of shit that doctors have to learn, there's no way for them to keep all of it in their heads. You have to use Google searches to jog your memory as well as keep up with new treatment guidelines.
I think that pertains to most professions and Google.
