Richard R. Schneider, M.D. speaks passionately from over 30 years of experience. He’s seen first-hand how greed and profit— not the best interests of patients— drive the healthcare industry.

In this crucial election year, Dr. Schneider has formulated realistic and logical ways to fix the system and hopes to help enact change.

Dr. Schneider will also reveal:

•    How doctors rip-off the system to line their own pockets.

•    Three ways to protect yourself from improper medical care.

•    Why doctors ought to receive report cards.

•    Personal anecdotes on the shortcomings of the healthcare system.

•    How instituting reform could give Americans better healthcare at an affordable price.
