Is Pristyn Care an unethical sham?

Context: Took my parent for a Piles checkup as the issue was flaring up. The first thing they checked was my insurance coverage details. The consulting doctor (more of a quack) recommended immediate surgery as 'it may lead to much greater complication if left untreated'. Inwas ready to go for it but my spouse recommended we see more doctors. Both the other doctors (very reputed) said this doesnt need a surgery and that my parent would need some rest and palliative care and that it would be ok in a few weeks. This is what exactly happened. Funny part - this was two years ago, but since my number was the registered number, I still get periodic calls asking me if I had decided to go ahead with the surgery and that Piles can only be managed with a surgery. The founder in any case, from his prolific Linkedin usage, seems like a righteous jerk who would rather believe that employees should not be expect compensation but be as loyal as dogs.

Getting old

I’m a software developer who has had a very boring life. I’m earning well (75LPA+) and do not get motivation chasing numbers anymore now but I do appreciate the fancy ₹1L ergonomic chairs at work. In terms of work, i don’t face any major challenges and honestly I don’t crib about the long hours in my org. As for personal health, well there’s no personal health. Like many others, i crossed 25 recently and sitting at my desk this Tuesday suddenly my lower back is upto giving up completely. Apart from that, have always been too nerdy to develop any fitness hobby and have no interests as such either. Somehow, the fact that money can’t buy a painless spine has being hitting hard a lot but I have been helping and healing by looking at the free food and perks I have in life. Family is slightly pushing physiotherapy as an option but I don’t want to ruin my daily routine because I don’t feel that’s something which will help and don’t think a good doctor match will be possible. Perfectly fine staying stiff and sitting alone for rest of the life rather than ending up with some quack chiropractor with any sort of past. Given all this, i really would not want to harm or hurt my posture more because I won’t overlook such a fact. My standards for a good chair too are a bit high I must confess in which its almost next to impossible to find anything better. People have been suggesting yoga but I don’t think that will be useful and its all now cheap business. Open to hear thoughts ! Thanks :)
