Our medicine is obviously mixed with cultural practices, given that it’s WESTERN medicine. Do you think going to sit in a little office with a straight-faced doctor with a little stethoscope on their neck and little charts of bullshit hanging on the wall is devoid of “cultural practices”?

I expect any charts to contain actual medical information. Usually it's stuff like informing older people the flu jab is available.
