<div class="NTForums_Quote">Posted By Henci Goer on 06/28/2008 2:29 PM<br><DIV class=NTForums_Quote><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">Posted By n/a on 06/27/2008 5:38 PM<BR></FONT> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">[/quote]Actually....there are a SHORTAGE of OB's in this country because so many are going to GYN only due to incredibly high malpractice insurance premiums for OB. There are more women seeking OB care than there are OB's to see them...which could be one reason OB's only get those 5 minutes at appointments to talk to you...also, some women only want 5 minutes, so *shrug*</FONT></DIV> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote> </DIV> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote> </DIV> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote>I seriously doubt that malpractice premiums are the issue whatever ob/gyns might say for why they dropped ob because the costs just get passed along in what obs charge. Let's put it this way: I'll believe in obs crying poor when the hospital doctors' parking lot is filled with older model compact cars.</DIV> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote> </DIV> <DIV class=NTForums_Quote>-- Henci<BR><BR></DIV><BR><BR></DIV></div><br><br>
