band-aid medicine

Typical of modern medicine, focusing on curing symptoms rather than their cause.

Patient *has heart attack*
Doctor: We are going to have to remove your heart.
Patient: Won't I die?
Doctor: Yes but you will not have any more heart attacks.
Patient: 'walks out' I don't know if I want band-aid medicine. Maybe I will just lay off the Mickey D's
