thank you for shedding light on this!! such an important issue. corporations are making it unbearable to be a doctor. AND now you can't take more than $200k of federal student loans out. so you have to take out private loans if you're poor. we're only going to have rich people going to med school now. that will reduce quality of care. i don't think I would have completed med school if I couldn't take out all my federal loans. i finished school 3 years ago and my debt is already up from $240k to $263k. it would be so much worse if I had private loans

Their job will be taken in the future. As a plastic surgery nurse I talked to the surgeons for hours and they talk about their career being taken over in the next 10 to 12 years.

Yes - please don’t blame doctors for the system being messed up. The big problem is insurance and corporatization of medicine.

I love your mom. I come to your page every day to get something to get motivated about. Given the current state of things, it's easy to get complacent, but she has such intelligent takes on big issues, she gives me hope we can change things. 😘

Teachers are doing the same! Six years of schooling and we get a starting salary of about $46,000 if you’re in a decent state or district.

The “Inbox” requires a tremendous amount of time and that’s basically volunteer work, because it’s not billable. In primary care it takes 1-3bhpurs per day to do refills, messages, etc.
