Like Linda said, there are a lot of variables.  Is the doc full or part time (what do they consider full time)?  Are they doing therapy or just rx's.  I also agree, too many can be rx happy and not spend enough time with the pts.

Good luck!

Michelle that is very helpful information.  I am restarting starting my business from home and I am rebuilding everything ( does that make since  ??? ).  I am working on contracts, compliance plans and I think I narrowed it down to what software I want to use.  Now I am looking up providers to market to.  This was very good information.

Michele:
Glad to help!   :D
