Depressing, but true. Our healthcare system is broken. I wanted to be a Dr when I was a child. Life interfered with the master plan, and I settled on teaching instead. The same stuff can be said about being a teacher today. It’s a sad world when those who enter careers that used to be the hallmark of humanitarianism, intellect and trusted independent decision-making are now forced to practice under individuals and corporations who only know how to bean-counters. Not much chance anymore to any financial reward for pursuing intense education, making a commitment to life-long learning and it must be terribly frustrating to not be allowed to actually give full treatment to your patients.
This is so true, and it is so sad. Would I care if my doctor who is highly educated and continues to be educated live in a mansion or drive a fancy car? NO!!! They earned it!!! Unfortunately, America think we need to fix everything. Taking away the management of care and insurance from the doctors to big insurance industries like Blue Cross, CVS, Kaiser really has helped hasn’t it? Doctors education is so costly these people aren’t in it for the money! They are in it to help people! This is more than we can say for our elected political officials who have less education, get paid more, more perks, less days working… Teachers are in the same boat as Doctors. I wonder what would happen if they all decided not to show up to work for 2 weeks…
Bless You doctor for telling the truth!!!!
Totally frustrating for doctors such as yourself. Excellently written article!
This is a travesty and it is completely true. It is all about that fight for equality and the giant corporations bottom line. Well folks these doctors and teachers paid for their own education and worked their tails off so they deserve to be financially rewarded. The people who sit on their butts and don’t should not be equal financially. The money hungry profit making, decision making, corporations riding the coattails of hardworking doctors and teachers is a crime! Thank you for such a well written article speaking the cold truth. I don’t want my son to grow up to be a doctor or teacher and that is just sad!
