I’m an internist and was expecting that although my retirement portfolio would be decimated my business would thrive. I’m astonished how my practice has been decimated as well.
Most of my chronic patients (diabetes, heart disease, anxiety, depression, obesity, hypertension, cancer etc.) have been staying away in droves. They are hiding under the bed watching CNN and getting sicker and sicker without medical care. The repercussions of over-reaction will reverberate for a long time.
I’m a Yale alumnus (residency and chief residency) and ashamed of their (over) reaction.
God bless you and hope you and your patients weather this man made storm well.
Bill
