Nobody Should Believe Me · What “The Preventionist” Left Out with Dr. Randy Alexander · 12 Dec 2025 podcast

We draw blood from them.

We do a lot of that.

We do it for a much better reason.

You know, we're trying to save their life or, you know, try to help their condition or diagnose them or something.

And so when you see a doctor, to the child's point of view, it's not completely safe, but what we certainly hope in its elements is safe.

And we hope that in the long run, we're doing really good for them, despite, you know, the discomforts that they have along those lines.

And I think in a certain sense,

People don't understand that overuse of doctors can be a problem.

Like for instance, if you drew a lot of blood on somebody that never needed it, if you did a lot of other things, those hurt.

And there are things, now maybe they're not all life-threatening, but still there could be a problem there.

So this is a person that misunderstands

I have to say that as a medical provider, medical providers kind of get it.

They understand, you know, well, what's this going to mean, you know, to doing this?

I mean, I don't like doing things to kids that they don't need, and I don't know any other pediatrician that would.

I mean, we try to be as minimalist as need be, but then we know there are things that we have to do, you know, if we care about the child.

and so anyway that person does doesn't really know second of all if he really had a concern at the time he could have brought it to me as a statewide medical director i never heard it so it sounds like it did go up the chain for review and then basically he was told to me like he was told yeah gentleman is wrong i'm the i'm the i'm the supervisor so um

And there'd be nobody else to judge.

Had he brought it...

you know, up to me, if it had come up the chain, I would have looked at it.

If I thought Jen was wrong, I would have told her in a flash.
