I disagree that the doc will drop his contract with Freedom Health. The more HMO's , the more checks he receives. It's a sure thing.
Obviously, not all docs are out for strictly the money. I'm sure somewhere here in TV there are some truly caring docs.

Not only do you not personally know this, but it bespeaks of a deeper problem you might have...oh and it's spelled "whether" not "weather" which of course is what happens to our atmosphere...
