Haven't noticed any shortage of doctors in France or Italy or Spain or any of the other countries with universal health care. To the contrary, Canada, Italy, Germany and others have more doctors per capita than we do. Matter of fact, I have an MD friend who left the US to practice in Canada, saying it was less paperwork and hassle to get paid and he had more time to devote to patient care.

But I bet they don't have as many health insurance and drug company execs making 7-figure salaries as we do. Here's an eye-opener for anyone struggling to pay medical bills or health insurance premiums: http://www.harp.org/hmoexecs.htm
