Question
"With HMOs and the high costs of medical insurance, have you had to change the way you practice medicine, and has this made it less enjoyable? Are there certain specialities where this is less of a problem than others? Also, is there a constant concern among doctors that the eventual, unavoidable mistake will lead to lawsuits and threaten your career?"
