Dean HActually, doctors are not recession proof. I work in the medical field and doctors are my clients. Many are extrememly slow. Yes people are still getting sick but many are not going to the doctor. They don't want to pay the co-pays, prescriptions and those that have been laid off may not have insurance. So they just try and stick it out and use over the counter meds to get through. I also have had many Docs say that can't get loans due to the credit crunch. Plastic surgery and other "elective" surgeries are down as well. So I think just about every profession is being affected. Some more than others but all to a certain degree.
