How the government destroyed this rural cancer practice

Still want single-payer after reading this story from California?

As a former rural breast cancer surgeon whose practice consisted largely of uninsured and underinsured women, I am uncertain why the same group that brought taxpayers $20,000 toilet seats should be in charge of the medical treatment choices patients and their families make.

As a provider of government medicine, I’ve seen the low quality of decision-making offered when it is shifted from patients and their doctors to Sacramento bureaucrats.
