Woof. I know it's old but yikes this take on nursing as a profession is wildly disrespectful

Alright so this is a fundamental (but extremely common) misunderstanding of the healthcare dynamic between doctors and nurses

Ahhhh gold ole Murica with your outlawing midwifery and the centuries of knowledge that came with it and doubled down by making sure that medicine was so exclusive we’ve got less female doctors than most of the other countries in the western world
Shocked

Wild that Paracelsus is considered not just the father of medicine but also western alchemy and even HE admits that “the sorceress” (midwife) taught him everything he knew
So where are all of the famous lady alchemists or centuries past?
