In my former home state of the People’s Republic of Massachusetts, now over 50% of internists and 40% of family/general practitioners are not accepting new patients. And of course, Nurse Practitioners and Physicians Assistants are not permitted to open their own practices, nor are retail clinics exactly encouraged.

You know how I plan to get care in a few years? My wife. She’s going to school for training. Or will they not allow her to take care of our family because she does not yet have an MD?
