Another thing, the government allows doctors to set up an "illegal in all other industries pricing model", no way to compete with that.
Hence, two different business models between those professions and us. Its not worth trying to compare.
Imho nothing compares to aviation, it's the only industry I know where you fly airplanes for hire. We offer time. The machines are extremely expensive and easily broken. at one moment in time we frankly have the future of the company in our hands not too mention dozens and dozens sometimes hundreds and hundreds of lives in our hands.
I mean yeah sometimes they're just middle class scum, but, they're alive.
We frankly just have to set our own rates regardless of what other industry and competitors are doing.
Orthodontist are the guys who come out the winners btw.
