The Whole Truth about Medical Malpractice and Insurance: Doctors Aren’t Leaving Illinois – Their Numbers Are Increasing!
CHICAGO – Romanucci & Blandin has received the results of a study that show the number of doctors in Illinois has NEVER declined in the past 45 years.

Interesting fact: Illinois has more doctors per capita than three other states – California, Ohio and Texas – frequently cited by tort reformers because of their caps on damages
