Remember when Doctors made house calls? Me neither! Why not? Most physicians these days don’t even answer their own phone calls. Why? It is not their fault. Their hearts are in the right place. However, they are squeezed. They rely on insurance reimbursements, which have not increased in years. They need to see so many patients to generate the revenue needed to cover their expenses. They don’t have time to make house calls in Los Angeles. After seeing so many patients in the office, they are exhausted. They can’t drive to your house in Beverly Hills in the evening.
