420 young, healthy patients probably see the doctor 2x a year at most. That's less than 20 visits a week for the doctor. And as soon as you become unhealthy you are passed along to a specialist or dropped.
You're paying for the bedside manner, not the medicine.
- sshine 1y agoI’m 39 and I see my doctor once a year, at most. This year I had a urinary thing. Last year and the year before that I had a rash. The year before that I didn’t go. For all of my twenties I went three times. She still remembers me just fine, asking how is my CrossFit doing. I see my wife’s doctor more often than my own because he is also our newborn son’s doctor. They both have thousands of patients. The waiting rooms mostly have elderly, parents with their newborns and obese people.

- sshine 1y agoMy chart doesn’t mention my hobbies. But yes, she does read my chart. It’s not very interesting.
