susan fleischman, m.d.: i so much wish that we didn't need to exist.o i'm always ambivalent about "oh, isn't it wonderful that we've grown, and isn't it wonderful that we offer the services that we do?" but it's really just a marker for the need in the community. and so it's actually very sad that we've had to grow to the extent that we have. and i wish people just got healthcare, as part of what you get when you live here in the united states, like you get public education. my long term vision would be to see a day when anybody could go to a doctor and just get care, and the question wouldn't be, "what insurance do you have? what form do you have? how are you going to pay for this?" that there is a basic knowledge. i lived in england for a little bit. i got sick there. i went to the doctor. it cost me ten cents, and the ten cents was for the bottle for my medication. that was it. i know that england has a problem with their system, and they're working on it, but i think we need to really come up with something that works for everybody that's living in
