Sure, some doctors will retire. This happens every year since doctors get older like we do and also like to retire. There are young new doctors coming into the healthcare system each year, too. No one is going to have a hard time finding a doctor. There is even some government plan that will help new doctors pay part of their schooling if they agree to practice medicine in understaffed areas. I personally know of one who did this in a rural part of Iowa.
Look around The Villages. Scads of doctors of all specialties. Also, lots are from countries like India or Pakistan. No problem with those doctors. They all have lots of patients and get high recommendations just like the American doctors.
Shame on the Tea Party for trying to scare seniors.

I agree with this, though I don't really blame the members of the tea party, most of whom have no idea what is in the AHCA or how it will truly affect them. It is shameful that a few people with a political and sefish agenda spend millions of dollars and hours of airtime to convince and scare people who are already wary of government and particularly the President.
