might i just add:

i live in the provincial capital.
population of about 81 000.
there are 62 family physicians/general practioners listed in the phone book within an hours drive from here.

that means each doctor would have 1300 patients each, if we don't count people outside the city limits.

so lets not limit this to small towns.
