sorry, i ran out of comment space. by their oath one would think they are in it to help the sick, the problem we have today is most don't care so much about the sick, they are more concerned with the collection of their exorbitant fees. don't get me wrong there are doctors that will actually waive there fees, but they are far and few in between. this is why we see so many medical facilities that turn patients away because of their insurance or lack there of. No, i think ACH's question about salary is a fair one.
