how the drug they were pushing actually works

Does that mean he was explaining the mechanism by which it works and it was good? Or was 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.
