What would be some fact that, while true, could be told in a context or way that is misinfomating or make the other person draw incorrect conclusions?

    If you have a complicated health issue or emergency, the legislative branch of government dictates your potential treatment.

    (Most reputable practitioners will temper their recommendations based upon the professional risk involved.)

        Still holds true either way. If the doctor is or is not at great risk of legal consequences, it will greatly impact your care. I have a complicated case with lots of small spinal damage that all adds up to partial disability. All reputable neurosurgeons here spend five minutes reading the radiology summary from a MRI and walk away from anything that is not easy like my case. It is just too much legal liability to take on hard cases. If you live in a region where it is safer for the doctor to treat difficult cases with impunity, you will likely get better, or at least more, care. In the real world, the legal system plays a major role in medical treatments. No one is throwing away or risking their entire career on your case. Skipping context, your healthcare really is determined by Judges either way. Learning this the hard way sucks.
