About this listen

There is no question that primary care is dying in this country, much to the detriment of our entire healthcare system and every person who utilizes it. We talk about an article called The Eulogy for Primary Care that talks about why it's dying and missed opportunities. Not only are no medical students entering the field, but those in it are burning out and having almost no time to actually care for patients. We talk about our own experiences and how grateful we are to have been able to carve out a way to still be real doctors for whole people who we have known for long periods of time. In the end, unless we can revive primary care, there will be no healthcare system, just number fixing and organ repair, all at huge expense with horrific outcomes.
