Hey, Mike. I wasn't sure what you meant by “doctor shopping”. If you meant searching / interviewing to find a decent doctor, I agree. That shouldn't be discouraged.
But that's not what these laws are talking about.
That's why I think we should make the DEA & newspapers, etc, change the term they use for prescription abuse. Doctor-shopping should sound just as good as clothes-shopping and stereo-shopping and all those other things the President said we should shop for.
