"Lots of reasons why these hospitals go bust. But one of the biggest is simply that there aren't enough doctors to staff them all."

You have no idea what you're talking about. A good friend was a doc at SJMC until he was let go along with the rest of his unit when the place closed. Unfortunately it was not a surprise... That hospital was hemorrhaging money for a decade. Hint: A large majority of infants born there were to illegals. This is the case in most big-city hospitals in Kalifornistan nowadays. There just aren't enough paying customers to subsidize that many non-payers, and then the damn lawyers suck the bones of the carcass.

One doctor does not a hospital make.
