This is the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
Here are several of the factors that are driving MD’s from their profession.
1. Government control over HOW they can treat their patient.
2. Government control over HOW MUCH they will be paid.
3. Higher taxes on the amount they earn from their work.
4. No protection from malpractice claims.
5. Most medical specialties have Board Certifications which have comprehensive exams that must be passed every ten years for re-certification. The physicians who were grandfathered and exempt from the exams (pre 1980+-) are now retiring. Those who finished residency in the 1980’s are now 35 years out and are now saying that this is the last time they will take the exams.
6. Many physicians have made enough $$ and their children are now out of the nest and beyond college thus they no longer are forced to work.
7. Dangers to themselves of new viruses and infections that are untreatable.
There will be a mass exodus in the next few years.. (months)
Add to the list:
8. Being forced to provide medical treatments that are inconsistent with their personal beliefs.
Exactly and that is why the war has been lost.
Those who can, leave, the rest accept the status quo. Go along, get along.
Fear is an incredible weapon. Fear of expensive tax audits, fear of invasion of privacy, etc.
That is what makes Dr. Kris very special. She is not quitting. She just refuses to "go along" like all the other sheeple."
Gotta love them Southern Belles. Wish there were more willing to kick a** and even more showing them our support
