You can say that again. Doctors can frame it however they like, the fact remains that we are not only patients, we are also customers. We are their book of business. They are required by good business practice and ethics to treat us as both.

It is my firm belief that doctors have turned the health insurance industry into a money mill for themselves. If looked at under a microscope, that is called thievery.
