because I had a knee replaced. Thinking about it I note that while my orthopedic surgeon did a great job on the knee, and my internist referred me, noone in the medical community looked after the "whole me". I had some intestinal issues. "Not my job" was the general response I got.
So I wonder -- is it this way for most people? Do they think a medical professional gives a hoot about anything but his or her special part of a procedure?
