doctors work like dogs and keep getting the brunt of bama's ( and other administrations as well) budget "cutting"...

they could have partied in college and become teachers and never worry again....

My doctor left his practice also - couldn't afford it anymore.

Medicare payments cut again yesterday, its all intentional.

I’m sure a lot of baby boomer docs will figure out it’s time to retire rather than work for Baraqqi wages and pay Baraqqi taxes.

Then “unexpectedly” there will be a doctor shortage.

I hope it would still be possible for doctors to continue an entirely private practice. Guess that isn’t the case. :(

My doctor told me this week that he may have to cut staff. He said it may come to patients seeing a physician practitioner before some one will see a medical doctor.

Way to go OBummer!

Yet another consequence of Obamacare-style "care." Good going, liberals, good going.

If your a primary care doctor in private practice why the he!! would you remain in business when the obama admin supports ILLEGALS and basically are dumping 20-40 million of them into the health care system.

Come on MAN!

My OB-GYN is moving out of his office as of next Thursday, said he’s moving back to his family in Illinois. Back to searching for a doctor again.

Everybody knew when the DemocRats passed Mengelecare that it would result in rationing.
Well, in Connecticut the lines for OB/GYN doctors just got a tiny bit longer.

Congratulations, America, on your "historic" election.

>> it decided it could no longer meet the financial demands of running the practice.

Probably a combination of a bad economy and little hope for future opportunity in light of Commie-Care.

Your Hope has been redistributed. Here's your Change.

To all of you who voted for this, thank you not!

I argued with my hippie brother about compensation for Doctors. His attitude was disgusting. If the Doctor is older and has repaid his Medical School loans, his mortgage and his kids higher education, why shouldn't he take a cut in pay? I couldn't believe it!! This is a brother who never felt he was adequately compensated for being a carpenter. It's the Leftist’s mindset. THEY deserve anything and everything that anyone else has, otherwise life isn't fair. Unbelievable!

What isn’t mentioned - malpractice insurance continues to skyrocket - most evident in the OB field. And those costs don’t go down when insurance and government health care payments drop...

It is pretty obvious.

If you want your doctor to stay in business you better start paying him some cash and not just force him to go through your insurance company, particularly if you are on government care.

Wonder how much malpractice insurance had to do with the decision to close.

The plan is to drive doctors out of business, then sue them for going out of business.

Mark my words.

Didn’t Obama promise that if we like our doctor, we can keep him?
