If I were a physician I'd be pissed at this allegation. It is as though there is no professionalism, whatsoever, in the medical community. Which couldn't be further from the truth. I deal with a lot of physicians and I do not know A SINGLE ONE who would be influenced by something like this. These guys aren't sitting around trying to figure out how dream up new procedures so they can bilk patients. A more likely situation is that a physician, for example, performs unnecessary C-sections because he was trained that certain circumstances call for them and the thinking has changed since his training. THAT, maybe. But they're not generally choosing it because it pays better than a vag delivery.
