Disney I know what you are going through. Twenty years ago I would have never have guessed that a dentist now would have a higher earning potential than the average physician.

In the meantime there is overtreatment going on to cover your butt on potential malpractice lawsuits and to enhance revenues.

Unfortuantely, lawyers and the insurance industry are ruling the roost as well as the massive inefficiencies of record keeping in the industry which keeps the inflation snowball in the medical industry keep on rolling (which has averaged 10% per annum since WWII).

Eventually things will have to change. Healthcare in its current form will bankrupt the treasury in 10 years.
