53. Doctors have no incentive to improve their craft.
They get paid whether you get better or worse, live or die, makes no difference to them when you're on the patient merry-go-round. When the medical "professionals" weed out the incompetents or uncaring, then I'd be willing to pay for top-notch care but top-notch care is an elusive beast in my experience. The doc at the bottom of the class still gets the same MD behind his/her name as the valedictorian so quality health care is pretty much a crap shoot.
