Most, who are > 50 y/o will simply quit
The stress is just not worth it.
The Younger MD’s with children, loans, and limited saving
are to be pitied.
My wife’s OBGYN is in her early 60s and still paying back her school loans — and that’s from an era when med school was still somewhat affordable. Good luck to your son. Hopefully he can land some big-name pro-sports customers. Seems like sports medicine is where the money is these days. “Boutique practices” as the article calls them.
The family pratitioners I have gone to for the past 30 years have expanded and expanded and have built giant clinics. Just walked through one, lots of exam rooms, looks like they are going to be hiring lots of NPs and assistants and do more of a factory based outpatient setting.
They also have all specialities under their wings and refer there first. and have all imaging and labs other services in their different locations.
They actually should think of opening their own hosptial.
A neighbor of mine works as an ER Doc in Singapore. Works a month or so, home for a month or so. Seems to enjoy it.
Our family dr & our ENT are both against it. They will likely retire, they are old enough.

Indeed. Anyone who's observed the British system for any length of time could predict this. Obamacare will drive highly skilled people to other employment. A shortage of physicians and nurses will result. The gap will be filled with domestic "90 day wonders" and frauds bearing 3rd world medical credentials. One need only look at the daily horror stories of patient "care" in the British press to see how this turns out.
-——Say hello to Dr. Muhammad.——
More likely Dr Patel or perhaps Dr Chang.
Asians will fill the vacuum
bump for later
There is a business in town [Plant City] that is closing up after several decades.Right after obana assumed power, I was in there to buy something and I talked with the owner and told him that obama was going to close him down by closing the businesses that supported [kept him in business]down. He looked at me like I did not know I was talking about. [I was going to write , he looked at me like I was stupid, but a lot of people do thaton a daily basis]And replied"No, he [obama] won't. He is going to make things better. Yesterday, I stopped in there and asked him,"Remember What I told you?" He replied in a bitter tone of voice, "Yes, I do and he did". Another lesson learned the hard way.
All the good and decent ones are going or will be gone by the time the pimple faced puss blobs that so gleefully put obama in power will need their services. They will be replaced with Affirmative Actions and political appointees that will not know one of a syringe from another. With the good doctors going, medical research will also accompany them.With obamacare the practice of medicine is beginning a journey back to the middle ages
I can’t afford vacation ,let alone medical tourism.
