“United Healthcare” can’t pay the doctors more because of its kickback to AARP.

A huge doctor shortage is looming. We cannot and will not attract our best and brightest students to medicine unless their pay is commensurate with the level and intensity of work and commitment needed to fund a modern medical education.

Planned so the Democrats can import doctors and support staff from Third-World countries.

The good doctor didn’t even touch on malpractice insurance.
That is astronomical.

Interesting article! I tried to change doctors in our family group, but was not allowed to. I’m an RN. I had to cancel a follow-up appointment due to caring for my mother-in-law in another state and she had not been released from rehab treatment to be on her own. I cancelled a week in advance. When I did return and had to call to renew an appointment, I was reamed out by the NP for canceling. Then I was further abused when I went for the rescheduled appointment. I told the manager that her (the NP’s) behavior was unprofessional and intolerant, and this was my reason to change doctors, since I was never going to SEE the doctor again, just the NP, I was not going to continue with the same DR/NP. Anyway, I had never had a physician treat me like this NP! It seems that this is the way most clinics are dealing with the doctor shortage. Nurse practitioners. Don’t get me wrong. I wanted to be one, too, but we moved overseas for 25 years and I was unable to. Many of them have crossed the line in their self esteem. They are NOT doctors, after all. But, Obama has fed their egos.
