thank you for your reply. I am trying to do just that, emulate her..But its just harder now.. Just from looking at her degrees (top medical school, residency and fellowships) I should have known a lot of this stuff already & if i can get rid of this guilt about snooping i might feel a lot better. Maybe some day I'll own yachts and go to regattas too!!! or at least race them in bathtub

Also the funny thing now is i've always had a fear that her practice will go under and i'll be left with no one to help me. It perplexed me how she doesn't take new patients but i never actually SEE another patient. Also she gives me extra time every week. So the flip side of her being loaded is that she probably doesn't need her practice to be a cash cow and I will benefit from that.
