Who Are You Voting For, Doctor?

By Alan Lyndon

The Presidential election got derailed for a few days during the impact of Hurricane Sandy, but it’s time to remember that in just five days, we will go out to elect our leader for the next four years.  We’ve heard all of the talking points on both sides from the media, from the campaigns, from the candidates.  Ultimately, though, their opinions don’t matter — yours do.

So, doctor, this is your chance to speak to your patients, your colleagues and your elected representatives.  What are your opinions of the upcoming election?  Who has your vote?  Who will win?  Why?  What issues are most concerning to the healthcare profession?  To patients?  We have five days to go.  What are your thoughts?
