Why does it take so long to schedule a doctor's appointment in the US?

Not psychic at all, unfortunately! I just upvote you a lot and keep and eye out for your (nearly always thought provoking) posts. IIRC, you said in the past you're a retired M.D., is that right?

If you live around the bay area, I'd love to buy you lunch sometime. You are indisputably a super interesting person, @bookofjoe! Email in profile, promise I'm pretty cool as far as humans go :p

Thanks for your kind words. Yes, I'm a retired neurosurgical anesthesiologist (38 years: 1977-2015).

I lived in LA from 1966-1983, when I moved to Charlottesville, Virginia, where I've remained.

I'm easy to connect with: [email protected]

When I'm not acting out on HN, I do so in these arenas:
