More Successful Doctor because he's paid by Medicare/Medicaid/Private Insurance.
The upper classes make up roughly 2% of the population and from my experience, they like saving a dime as much as anyone.
2% of the global population is much more than 2% of the United States. If Business Doc is already attracting foreign cash, he's going to continue to be in demand even as the U.S. fiscal position deteriorates in the coming soverign debt fiasco and much of wealth and prestige of Doctorland is blasted to pieces.
And there's a difference between Standard Med and Help Me Save Me Now Med, see cardiac surgery, radiation oncology, and our friend Business transplant doc, etc...people with money (and current insurance) who need their lives saved.
Now, what *could* blow a hole in Business Doc's life would be grow-your-own organs, but I bet you that Business Doc is already on top of that trend and ready to capitalize.
