May God dang to Haides anyone who tells young people to go into primary care medicine. The patients ignore what you have to say for good health and if one does an old time standard office, hospital practice and call, it is totally impossible to so anymore due to the EHR stuff Obama forced upon us.

I have been a supporter of the move to end MOC since I first learned of this from your blog several years ago.
