Drs are literally walking out of this talk on implementing,complying with Obamacare.We are men and women of the mind not mindless drones. 1:37 PM - 21 Apr 2013

Dr. Kristin Held, a San Antonio-based opthamologist, is live-tweeting the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery Government Relations session. The conference is being held this weekend in San Francisco.

The topic of the Government Relations session is complying with and implementing Obamacare. Dr. Held doesn’t like what’s she’s hearing, and she’s not the only one. Indeed, almost all the doctors have walked out of the meeting.

To all: Make certain you know the difference between an optometrist or an ophthalmologist.

Ophthalmologists is correct spelling. Optometrists are salivating. They don’t attend med school but want to perform procedures and give meds like real docs - they are even called Dr so most people don’t know the difference . Obama will just allow them to cut open your eye with no training.

Hope Doc Barack can care 4 all his patients.

LOL.

At least those in the medical profession are starting to push back on ZeroCare.

FUBO.
FUHR.
FUNP.

This is what history will record for these human pieces of excrement.

We should all hope to take bodacious Obamas on their graves.

Actually, but for opthamologists this country would have millions more blind folks unable to care for themselves. These people SAVE OUR SOCIETY hundreds of billions of real dollars.

Obama and his running dog lackeys have no ability to understand their usefulness.

You’d think journalists would at least spell ophthalmologist correctly if they’re writing about them.

We need a bad pun alert. :)

“Obama will just allow them to cut open your eye with no training.”

A huge swath of the general public voted for this guy. I'm sorry, but I just can't feel sorry for them.

[Heart-Rest]

These doctors and the B.O. people didn’t see eye to eye.
