the general public is getting no exit or alternative strategy form doctors.

The general public is not aware that the AMA is pro abortion, and definitely not aware that they are in a minority.

The general public is getting no guidance form doctora at all. They are hearing nothing regarding what they are in for.

THey are not aware, generally, that many doctors will retire, slinking out without telling patients what to do.

Just saying.

If your being treated by a liberal doctor who voted for Obamacare you better have 4 legs and a tail. ;-)

What guidance would you have us give? The public voted for obamacare elections have consequences. The only guidance I can give anyone is todo what I am doing. Vote. Be vocal with your representatives make it clear to the government that this is unacceptable. Pray.

Yes, for anyone out there that thinks that the AMA "speaks for doctors", find out if your own doctor is a member. IIRC, only about 18% of physicians are.

The average Joe MD, working in the trenches has a very LOW opinion of the AMA. The AMA is simply an arm of the democratic party. Made up of academic MDs, and hospital administrators/paper pushers.

When Obamacare was "endorsed" by those pieces of $hit AMA members in the Rose Garden, I almost threw up. They had the "doctors" wearing obviously recently unwrapped white coats to make them look all doctory. They still had the folds in them.

I bet not even a handful actually are in practice seeing real, live patients.

Ah, no. It is well known that it was railed against and shoved our way.

"I am now mandated by the government to talk to you about your weight, exercise, family life, smoking, sexual abuse(!), and even to ask if you wear seat belts. And I am mandated to record your answers. "

Or what? If I refuse to answer do you not provide treatment?

From The Hippocratic Oath: What I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside of the treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread abroad, I will keep to myself holding such things shameful to be spoken about.

Impeach the kenyan or secession.

Okay, lets mandate a lowering of standards such that more “deserving” students can play doctor.

Where is Fred Sanford when you need him?

I can see a lot of those sup-par students who aspired to become teachers will now become doctors. Our med schools will turn out inferior doctors the way our edu schools turn out inferior (but so proud of themselves) teachers. Also factor in the affirmative action angles which will make our doctor situation even worse

There will be no shortage of youngsters who will want to become wage earner doctors working on the Federale Gov’t plantation. Only problem is you won’t want to get treated by such doctors

check out this comment relating to importing doctors for 0-care to fill in the gaps. My point is there are many 3rd worlders who would love to be wage-slave doctors under 0-Care. Accepting compensation and working conditions our older American doctors would find insulting and will walk out on or retire >>>>>>

This is true,especially up in Canada. My friend lives in BC and the wait for a simple visit is 90 days minimum,no exceptions. And all or most of the docs are Indies. And the best part is most speak sh_t English so getting understood is even a problem. Start practicing your Hindi folks.

After you have re-attached your a, please be advised that I am on Medicare and that my doctor does not regard Obozocare as good for him, good for me, or good for anyone else.

How fortunate that you have a doctor, some of have been waiting for 12 weeks to even get in to see one. My @ss is firmly where it belongs.

Ring. Hello, Dr so and so's office.
I would like to make an appointment.
What is you insurance carrier?
Medicare. Click.

That is the reality, for anyone that has had to change insurance carriers, or had to move to a new community.
