I'm sorry I was dissing on dentists.
This is why I do this.
Dr. Mike, oh my God, I feel terrible now.
Yeah.
So-
Patient dissatisfaction, the fact that people don't have insurance, that they have to basically charge money to people who don't have money to pay.
It's not like if you come see me in the hospital, it's not up to me.
So that takes some of the stress off me.
But if I have to be the dentist, the one collecting it, suddenly it makes it a lot more difficult.
And it is a field that people don't talk about quite often.
Same thing with vets.
Imagine like, oh, my dog is dying.
Well, do you have money to pay for it?
Yeah.
Oof.
That's got to be hard on the side.
I have two dogs.
And I have one dog that lives with my dad.
Well, now it's private equity owned too.
It's rare nowadays to find, I guess, in big cities, a solo practice vet who takes care of animals.
