Yeah....I actually don’t know what I’m gonna do. I’ve had my doctor for near 30 years. He’s older than me and his wife died a couple of years ago and he’s really just keeping his practice open for the patients now.
I’m really apprehensive about his likely decision soon to just sell it out and retire. Where am I gonna find another one like him? It took me 30 years to train him. I don’t have enough time to train another one, especially if Obama’s gonna big box medical care.
I’ll be the devil’s advocate.......
Why should the practice of medicine be different than other businesses? Why is a doctor different from say an appliance store or mom and pop hardware store?
Why is a doctor not subject to economies of business scale like the drug store business?
The amalgamation of several doctors under one large roof that may or may not include family practitioners and specialists that are open 7 days a week is Walgreens or Walmart or Best Buy or Lowes.
Obamacare did not start the trend to group practices.
