I am surprised at how AC is stacked with solo-practitioners. No wonder why I love this group!

In our area with a medical staff of over 300 physicians, I can think of only 18 soloists (of which only 10 are primary care). I recently met with our next state senator at a campaign fundraiser(his win is assured although election ballots have not been counted), and I asked him to consider if he will introduce legislation to place "soloists" on the Endangered Species Act. He thought that was funny (although I was being dead serious). We need protection from predators, hunters and toxins which are killing us off.
