replyby Stu Pod (no login)As you and anyone else that reads this board knows, I never purported that Medicare fees were too high. Please provide the reference if this is otherwise. And I certainly won't hold my breath waiting for the reference. Also Dr. Doom and Gloomer, it's not my fault that the average net income for a podiatrist is over $134,000. Don't shoot the messenger. I believe that to be a respectable income if your main desire professionally is to help others. Although given the education, education expenses, and numerous physician responsibilities that go with the job, the pay should definitely be higher. Spend your time however you like: writing your senators to tell them that Medicare fees are too high because other podiatrists are more successful financially than you OR spending time to learn their secrets for professional success. It makes no difference to me. from IP address 12.83.148.67 Goto Forum Home |
