I used to go to my general practitioner and it was a very personal experience. He worked out of his house, where his father before him had a practice as well. Then, the cost of business drove him to enter into a practice with a ton of doctors, he went to a large office with many other doctors and nurses and the experience pretty much made me feel like a number. Why can’t we get back to the good old days where each patient felt like they knew the doctor personally? Now hes just in a rush to get to other patients because he needs to get as many billings as possible. This just isn’t right.
