I found an interesting poll on SDN Forum (from 2009) about practice options as a new physician. The results were interesting but not surprising. As I mentioned on the thread, I see this response from many new physicians who are coming out of medical school with a mountain of debt and are looking for stability. It would be interesting to see the same optometrists and ophthalmologists polled with the same questions after three to five years into their careers. It probable that the response would shift. Producing for a group as an employed physician can have a profound effect on a doctor's perspective. Work experience and production capability can lend confidence in being able to successfully start or acquire a practice.
