Also, if you do not like your personal physician find one you do and stay away from nurse practitioners. They may be well intentioned, nice people but they do not have the facility or training to function appropriately as a personal physician. They are just cheap labor that medical corporations can use to control large populations of people. Our medical system is being industrialized so that bureaucrats and pharmaceutical companies can steal your money and the government is not about to fix it. The first casualty in all of this will be personal physicians. You will no longer be a patient of Dr so and so. You will be a patient of Partner's or BIDCO or whatever large medical entity is in your area. There will be no personal connection, nobody on your side. Medical professionals will all work for some conglomerate not you. The old family doc is almost dead for good.
