Life of the Solo Doctor: The Musings of a Dinosaur:

They say the solo Family Doctor is extinct; gone the way of the dinosaur.

Well, I've been in private practice for well over a decade and I'm still kicking, so here's my blog.

Until they drag my cold, dead body off into the tar pit, read about my trials and tribulations -- and the joys and triumphs, which are what keep me going.

I'm a dinosaur, too, but I've only been one for three years. I still have no regrets about taking the solo plunge. I may make a little less money, but you can't put a price on freedom. I never realized how much I disliked being told by a business man how many patients a day I had to see and where I had to refer them until I purchased my freedom.
