Australians believe that their doctors are independent, because we have public and private medical systems and lots of "competition" between medical groups that appear to be run like businesses. What they don't realize is that the bureaucrats entirely own the profession and it's a monopoly from end to end. There is the illusion of freedom, but AHPRA suspends anyone who "holds the wrong views". Once suspended a doctor is not permitted to practice, to write scripts, sometimes they are not even allowed to contact their patients.

AHPRA is not sacking doctors for bad patient outcomes, patient complaints, fraud or high risk medicine. For all the world it appears that the worst thing a doctor can do is suggest cheap solutions that get in the way of Medical Profits.

The government forcibly takes the money to fund Medicare from Australians but doesn't let them have any choice about using those funds to talk to the doctor they prefer — only approved clone doctors. It's communist medicine.

If there was a free market, Australians could opt out of Medicare and fund their own doctors.

The AHPRA Inquisition Against Australian Health Professionals

Caldron Pool

Who, or what, is AHPRA? Dr Jereth Kok was interviewed this week on the Caldron Pool show, and he explained that it is a "monstrous bureaucracy" in Canberra that rules over all Australian health professionals: doctors, dentists, nurses, physiotherapists, paramedics, osteopaths, pharmacists.

…AHPRA has become a Stasi-like enforcement arm of the Australian Government. It has devoted itself to purging every health practitioner in the country who dares to take a stance that is at odds with the decrees of the Covid bureaucracy.
