In the US, lawyers side with patients

In the US, lawyers side with patients, while in Japan, lawyers side with patients and hospitals suing over reviews.

"Google Maps: Doctors sued over unfair reviews, Tokyo District Court, April 18, 2024 https://www.nhk.or.jp/shutoken/yokohama/article/020/40/"

Damage from unfair reviews

63 individuals and groups, including doctors from clinics in Tokyo, have filed a lawsuit against Google in the US, seeking a total of 1,449,000 yen in damages, claiming that Google Maps has repeatedly posted content that is not factual, or the lowest ratings without providing reasons, and that requests to delete the reviews have not been responded to.

The doctors, based on the content and date of the posts, believed that the posts were unfounded by patients who had been referred to another medical institution because the symptoms were outside their specialty, or who had refused to undergo unnecessary tests, and requested that Google delete the reviews.

However, they received an email response saying that the doctors had no choice but to negotiate with the posters to delete the reviews, or to get the court to order the deletion.

Lead plaintiff doctor: I am working properly, but people are posting false reviews on the map without my permission, and I feel frustrated by the current situation.

Medical institutions have a duty of confidentiality, so they cannot respond in public, and they can do whatever they want to me.

I have told Google that I want them to improve, but they have not made any essential improvements, and they have not agreed to discuss the situation, so I have no choice but to file a class action lawsuit. I want to do something about this extremely unreasonable situation.

"Lead plaintiff doctor: I am working properly, but people are posting false reviews on the map without my permission, and I feel frustrated by the current situation. "

I cannot help but feel uncomfortable about this statement.

How much of a lordly business are they in?

I can only think that they treat patients as a source of income and work from a superior perspective.

The doctors have colluded with lawyers to announce that they will take legal action against anyone who criticizes their business.

"I'm going to file a SLAPP lawsuit!"

(SLAPP lawsuits are a concept that originated in the United States, where politicians, large corporations, religious organizations, etc. file lawsuits seeking large amounts of damages for defamation against citizens for their criticism or opposition.)

I think this is just an act of intimidation by doctors who can't keep up with a society that has developed using the internet and word of mouth.

However, there are more and more problems with cosmetic surgery that is not covered by insurance, and problems are arising where problems that occur outside of insurance are being treated with insurance.

Also, although it's not often talked about, there are cases where people die from liposuction.

In the United States, lawyers side with the patient, but in Japan, the opposite phenomenon is occurring.

What exactly is justice?

Is justice money?

Unfortunately, justice has become "money" in Japan today.

Because of this constitution, we are easily deceived by medical care, and we rely too much on doctors and are unable to properly manage our own health on a daily basis.

From the attitude of doctors, it seems that relying only on medical care is unlikely to lead to happiness.

The reason why humans get sick is because of "ki".

It can also be said to be electricity flowing through the body.

For health methods that can keep humans healthy, I recommend the RAPT blog.

I hope that you will learn how to interact with medical care correctly without being deceived by modern medicine, which only thinks about making money.
