I have been having fun all morning today reading Atul Gawande's article on my little town in McAllen. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/06/01/090601fa_fact_gawande
Ever since I moved to RGV nearly 5 years ago, I have watched physicians building their own little empires, almost forgetting their primary profession and instead behaving like real estate tycoons and hedge fund managers. Their affluence and the gaudy showmanships are just astounding against the rest of the community. No wonder those chickens are going to come home to roost one day!, of course, not today. So, let me partake in this gravy train until it keeps chugging!!
