I was a social worker, then teacher only interested in medicine because my family & I had such serious genetic illness for which available drugs were making us much sicker. I hope you can use your interest & expertise to help people like us. This country also needs people like you to be politically active enough to wrench control of health care away from the powerful & greedy Pharma and Insurance industry who care only about making as much money as possible off sick people. They should be working for doctors, nurses, therapists and people like you for the benefit of patients instead of overcharging us to cheat you out of the time, energy and funds to do your best work. Doctors had to hire companies just to negotiate with them to get paid, and now a lot of those companies are hiring the doctors! It probably doubles the cost as well as ruining the quality of health care.

I agree, there are a lot of problems with Todays health care. My personal friend (a Family physician) talk about them all the time. Alas, my age and infirmities keep me from doing much. I had to retire (After 20 years) from running the Neighborhood Assn. But I do offer my advice, such as it is and when appropriate to others on this website. Which seems to be a true blessing in many ways.
