    Every day is Doctors’ day in Antigua! Every day they rake in hundreds of thousands of dollars from unsuspecting poor people. In Antigua a regular visit to a private doctor with a duration of ten to fifteen minutes normally costs minimally $200. On one neighboring island, your could have a SIMILAR service from an equally qualified doctor for $80. Sorry, Every day is Doctors ‘ day. I will NOT join the misguided band of well wishers -at least not for those living and/practicing here.

    Faithful National #1 and Antigua Surf who’s in agreement please be aware that the government dig their hands in the pockets of poor people more than the doctors do. the doctors only salary comes from seeing patients but the government on the other hand raises taxes every 2 hours, but the pay stays the same for almost 20 centuries. like wanna talk about the hike in vehicle fees? wanna talk about social security? cause it went up at the start of the year. an yet still pensioners still cannot recieve what they put in years of service for. In closing, the government aren’t saving our lives, but the doctors can.
