I pray for the day when I can be independently wealthy. When I can pay $100 or whatever for a doctor's visit and get some real quality time with him or her. When I can whip out my debit card and just pay for an MRI or whatever and just get the shit done, and not have to worry about getting a bunch of paperwork from the hospital and the doctor's medical group and the insurance company to fill my medical binder.
My last doctor in Philadelphia was kind of a dick, but he always took the time to really make sure I was doing OK, and would cut me slack financially when I didn't have health insurance. I've never forgotten that. So Dr. Rick Mandel, thank you.
