In large practices, I definitely won't put the majority on the docs. Most of them don't know any better (they're honestly just not that bright) and I've had quite a few who were just as disillusioned as myself but choose to remain out of, let's be real, fear. I won't call it cowardice because man needs to earn a living. But I was faced with the same dilema in a different sector (ironically, finance) and bailed. Now that I reflect on it, had I stayed my actions could have ending up causing just as much harm via forming the system on the back end, via finance.
Sorry for the rant. :) It's been a long day. I'm coming to terms that I'm an armchair economist who kind of hates capitalism. Even though advances it brought about keep me alive. (T1). And if you can't tell, it's always comforting to talk to a Doc who gets it. o/
Bro, you're a Doc in my book. Awesome chat. WWG1WGA.
(BTW, your personal story is very similar to a close relative's. Obviously different, but I'm glad I can emphasize. We're all in the same boat, one way or another)
