money the government is offering 34 per cent over the next three years as well as the walkouts doctors here are refusing to call in refill prescriptions to pharmacies instead theyre asking patients to come to their offices were not punishing anyone explained dr peter izso these are simply ser vices we provided free of charge before now were requesting patients come in they plan to temper their judgment however he said where patients are unable to make it calls will be placed to the pharmacies as usual the idea is to show the government that- doctors are standing together and if proper negotiations dont occur well go on to the next step he said the present situation is creating problems for the physicians too dr izso ad mitted were also punishing ourselves through greater workloads he stated dr izso discounted figures published recently in two t6rdht6dailies that placed the average physicians salary at 87000 he called this greatly exaggerated he explained that the bottom third of practising doctors had been eliminated to reach that in come level dr izso admitted a per sonal dislike for the situation in which he now finds himself id like it to end as quickly as possible he said dr donald petrie agreed that some patients were being inconvenienced but i hope theyll let the government or their representatives know how they feel one way or another he said the stand taken by the doctors had not happened over night the reasoning goes back several years we were forced into it where does one draw the line how far do we want to be pushed he concluded town spreads magic carpet
