It's been a long time since I have written, but why am I not surprised to see this coming from MilMD? The money always seems to be one of the biggest things he gripes about. The other thing that seem prevalent in his posts is that he is damn bitter because he actually had to deal with a bureaucracy by joining the military. I guess in private practice there is no bureaucracy, and everything is easy. Well, hope you are having fun with the insurance industry now MilMD.
Everything that MilMD says is tinged with a bitter attitude toward the Navy. When you hate your job, you will never be able to say anything good about it. Just a disclaimer for those who hang on every word he says. Remember, he does not speak for everyone in Navy medicine. He will report that he does, but having spoken to MANY Navy physicians myself, I have never seen such discontent. I have heard them complain about some aspects, but never have they been so bitter. Oh well, I certainly hope that when I am a board certified physician, that I am not trolling in StudentDoctor.net spreading my anger at the world. I guess if you have nothing else to do though...
