Abstract

With injuries happening daily it is no wonder that the medical field is constantly growing and evolving. This field has actively changed since its early incarnation during the Roman Era in which medicine was based on theory not science (Greig 41). With practices based on theory the profession was bound to change. It was more or less forced to change. The medical profession has switched its focus from a people-centric profession to a profit driven industry at the cost of the patient's health and wallet.
