Wonder if they’ll bring back house calls.

“Wonder if they’ll bring back house calls.”

House calls would be perfect. Think about it. No office(except home). Very little overhead. Don't take any insurance. Cash on the spot. Most doctors visit, think about it, are not for anything particularly life threatening. Primary care physicians send their patients to specialists anyway.

We have a chiropractor here in town. Been in business 40 years. Yea, he has a small office. He and his wife. Charges 20 bucks for an office visit. He's made a pretty good living over the past 40 years or so.

It can be done and should. Sure would take a lot of pressure off the Doc's too.

Doctors gave up making house calls after they started making high incomes. Believe it or not, once doctors’ incomes varied as much as lawyers do now.
