Sorry folks, I’ll be retiring in 2 years. Americans decided that there’s a majick doctor fountain. In my state the average age of docs is 55 years old. We’re on a collision course with Guatemala for rural health care. It’s going in opposite directions. Look at Gambia, 50 year’s worth of modernization in less than a decade. Shame.

A quote from a physician, a character in a novel by a controversial author who was in terrible need of a competent editor..

"Do you know what it takes to become an accomplished physician, what years of passionate concentration that go to acquire these skills? Should they be used at the men and women whose only qualification to rule is to lie most effectively, in their capacity to spout phony generalities that got them elected, that they don't even believe in. All they believe in is the privilege of enforcing their wishes at the point of a gun."
