title: Medicine 2000: attitudes are rapidly changing.
abstract: Today, as we face the next millennium, the author sees several interesting realities for the practice of medicine. There is very little opportunity for the new independent practitioner or the small group practice. Without joining an established group practice, it is extremely difficult for an individual physician to build a practice. The competition is too great.
