    No. It is only a survey and there are no facts to back up that claim.

    "Six in 10 physicians (62 percent) said it is likely many of their colleagues will retire earlier than planned in the next 1 to 3 years."

    I can't help but wonder why the people who wrote this survey didn't just ask doctors what they themselves planned to do, rather than asking what they thought that other doctors might do. Or maybe I should say, I can't help but find it suspicious that the authors of this article refrained from publishing the answers that question received.

    False. Parts of Obamacare have already taken place. If these doctors say their salaries will drop, it will drop.

    Obamacare seeks to decrease Physician salaries 10% to 15%!

    "These Chicken Littles are just like the restaurant owners who are saying they'll have to fire employees."

    These layoffs have already occurred. One of many examples:

    Applebees announces massive layoffs due to Obama reelection and Obamacare

    And there will be more to come. Mark my words. Mark Romares words too so that you will remember how wrong she is and was after Obamacare has been fully implemented.

    No one, including these doctors, can predict that their salaries will drop since the bill hasn't been implemented yet. These Chicken Littles are just like the restaurant owners who are saying they'll have to fire employees. Let's wait and see if the sky really falls before panicking, what do you say?
