You go to a healthcare facility to receive healthcare, not to get to know the staff. They’re not your friends. It’s not a bar, though staff are often treated as servers who deliver turkey sandwiches and narcotics instead of alcohol to some patients. They are all being paid, for starters.
The other factor is the SOGIE portion of the chart. There is an entire section devoted to social work/case management, including risk factors and calculations on probability of readmission. Discharge planning. Behavior and psych is just as medical as your medication list. Life details are included. An analysis of housing and drugs is also important.
There’s an impersonal analysis called EDIE that involves calculations on visit frequency and such to all emergency rooms in the last 90 days. You can be a math calculation or you can talk about why.
Medical conditions and injuries don’t occur in vacuums. The people that carry them are a highly variable environmental effect on either, that affects either in significant ways. It’s all very unpredictable if no one talks about it.
Alternatively, healthcare would rigidly follow a by the book approach to a condition or injury, but not the person, wherein every patient is treated exactly the same regardless of who they are or their life circumstances. You would become your inury or condition to full exclusion of everything else that makes you you. I am curious as to why you think this would be the preferred approach to medical treatment.

Not at all what I was talking about lol. I won’t go into specifics but it was relevant to what he was recommending that I do.
My point was, people in positions of authority sometimes take the attitude that the people “under” them need to just accept that they have no privacy / dignity / safety even about sensitive or emotional matters. Which, I kind of get it, it’s important to be truthful to your doctor even if it’s some kind of sensitive matter. To a certain extent it’s just business. But, at the same time, it sometimes leads them to be totally unsympathetic to the human side or approach things in an unproductive manner, for example expecting someone they met 30 seconds ago to be comfortable saying “Well how it got there is I stuck a BBQ sauce bottle up my ass on purpose because I’m a fucking depraved pervert and I love to do wanking butt stuff on my own time, last week I did a plunger and a toilet brush” and get surprised when there’s any level of hesitation about that response.
