Paychecks VS Patients

There is blatant disregard for patients with rare or unknown and invisible illnesses. Many of us are turned away being told we're crazy and to schedule a psych eval. Most are given several different medications that never seem to help and only cause horrible side effects. It's almost like they are throwing anything at you (which they will inevitably get a kickback from) in hopes it will do something so they won't have to deal with you. But they'll gladly take your co-pay and send you on your way..
So my question is:
When did the medical profession become more about the paycheck, and less about the patient?
I could have sworn that patient care was supposed to be number one. Correct me if I'm wrong, but telling a patient they aren't feeling what they're feeling isn't patient care. Referring them for unnecessary psych eval's under the assumption they are making up what they're experiencing, instead of actually looking into what is causing their problems is not only unprofessional, but inconsiderate.
And how is any of this supposed to help the patient? It leaves them confused, angry, depressed, frustrated, and otherwise defeated with no hope they'll ever feel better again... but Dr's feel great with the money they claim from insurance companies for your visits (and not doing anything for you besides telling you that you're crazy) and pharmaceutical companies (with all the bogus medications they want you to take) that fund their golfing trips around the world, fancy cars, and extravagant living. What did they do to actually EARN all that though? I mean, I could sit there in a white coat and pretend I know what I'm doing (and probably do it better than they do) and prescribe various medicines, too...
So again, when did it become more about the padding in their pockets instead of concern for the patient's well being?
