Doctors in America are harboring an embarrassing secret: Many of them are going broke.

2. Happy I live in Canada

I live in rural Northern Ontario. I asked my doctor if he liked our system and he said yes. Doctors are paid well here by our health care one payer system.

If they work up north where I live some are even given houses to live in rent free.

We Canadians are on the whole healthier because we go the doctors for annual check ups so the doctor can see something on the start.

I was thankful to have such a system when in September I had a detached retina in my eye. I saw my optomistrist for the problem and he sent me to the Ophthalmologist surgeon the same day, who operated on me that day.. No medical costs for me. The health system even paid for my car gasoline as it was a 4 hour trip, 2 hours each way.
