Problem is the stats dont agree with your assertion. Per AAMC, the number of applicant to US medical schools in 2011 was at an all time high. A trend that has been continuing since 2000. If Obamacare is scaring people away from medicine, why are more people applying to medical school?

Whats the statistics in the number of physicians actually taking early retirement? Not the number who would consider early retirement. Give us the actual numbers of those who did retire early and then we can talk.
More importantly what about the impact on Specialists? That's actually much more worrisome to me.
