    how the drug they were pushing actually works

    Does that mean he/she was explaining the mechanism by which it works and it was good? Or was she/he explaining negative side effects they failed to mention or didn’t understand? Something else?

      Ah, she was just correcting them on the mechanism of action, so I don’t think it was a good or bad thing. I was paying and leaving, so I couldn’t stay for the whole convo.

        Thank you for coming back to this! Yes, that sounds like a great doctor, good to hear she wasn’t having to school them on how it was causing harm or something like that.
