Ask someone like Moses what his malpractice insurance costs annually as an OB/GYN. Ask him about patients who he gets "assigned" when he has to do rounds in order to get priviledges at hospitals and the liability he takes on for the illegal women who never had prenatal care and she arrives in labor with the head showing. And if there is a problem with the delivery or the kid, the lawyer for the illegal says it must be Moses' fault.
Sorry Moses, just remember a post of yours like that.
I suppose that if I went to school/residency for 12-16 years post high school, I'd expect to make good or at least decent money. I imagine in today's market if you want to make really good money as an MD, you'd be a plastic surgeon, not an OB/GYN.
