Can you imagine, a doctor whining and complaining and playing victim? I'd get a new one.

No tears of pity from me.

The only docs I feel for are primary care docs and gerontologists. They are the paupers of their profession.

As for the rest of them...sit on it. They are making a killing and they know it.

I understand they provide a much needed service but looking at the income of other docs in other countries....they are not hard up for money.

Tell your doctor that he is a free man in America and can choose another career at will.

If he only went into medicine to make money, no one needs him around anyway. He will eventually do more harm than good.
