Do you remember the scene in the movie Animal House where Bluto Blutarski laments “…seven years of college education down the drain?”

My colleague Jaan Sidorov, MD and I pick up on no signs of discontent. Read our essay “Three Years of Medical Home Demonstration Preparation Down the Drain?” on Dr. Sidorov’s blog.
