[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PS: I'm thinking that maybe doctor appointments -- unlike those with bankers or lawyers -- are much more likely to have unexpected things come up that need to be dealt with because of that acuity. I mean, I'm sure bankers and lawyers deal with unexpected things, but probably not like you are describing. You know, things that can't be put off.[/quote] NP, but I’ll add on that doctors, lawyers, and financial workers all have heightened duties of care with oversight from licensing boards. This goes beyond what a normal business requires (e.g. you’re not just talking about meeting some basic regulations to run a coffee shop). All of these professions also require insurance because of the high stakes of screwing up someone’s life. Further, doctors must take a Hippocratic Oath. This is beyond a normal “business” obligation. Please do not go into medicine with the expectation of treating your patients like McDonald’s customers.[/quote]
