Ob’s take call 24hrs a day ... don’t get paid for phone calls, filling out forms, the list could go on. Also, docs are still paying off loans for college, let alone med school. So don’t go on about how much folks are paid, please. CP lawsuits are won and lost based on junk science. While docs may make mistakes, the science points to prenatal events as the cause of cp, no matter how many slip and fall lawyers say differently. And we all pay the price.
Please re-read my post, my point was no profession believes it is overpaid. That is human nature.
I agree with you on the lawsuits. I have argued it should be decided administratively in the government. No courts involved. Just a team of medical experts(with actual medical degrees) to determine if wrong doing. And then along with peoples insurance to determine the resulting costs of the damage done.. and if disciplinary action is neccessary against the doctor.
