It is a rather moot point asking smugglers what they'd do 
Anyway, if you feel being a doc is more useful and fun, of course you should drop smuggling. However before dropping everything, try to remember how annoying the Unarmed and slicing containers grind was, maybe you'll decide to at least keep those lines. I can't remember where, but I recall Caylin posted a reference to someone mentioning, there'd initially be no smuggler specific content in JLS

Well, I'm capped out on slicing XP, so if I ever decided to drop, it'd be easy to get back again. However, every time I think of dropping Master Smuggler, I somehow manage to convice myself not to. It's the first prof I mastered, and the one that I've held on to all along. And really, it fits my character best. I couldn't play the character the same way if I were a BH or a Swordsman or something like that. To me, the classes like Swordsman, Rifleman, etc. just aren't star warsy and aren't real conducive to role playing. But hey, role playing doesn't put money in the bank.
If ya like Doc better, go with it. It's a money maker, after all. For me, it just lacks... panache.

I make much more money as a Smuggler then I used to as a doc and you have much more chance to actually spend talking to your customers then you do as a doc with a queue who are all about getting thier buff and f'ing off.
All IMHO.

I have an alt that is a Master Smuggler. Having said that, this alt is also a 0444 Doc. Was thinking of going master doc. However, this would cause me to drop outa Master Smuggler. I really like the Master slices, but use the Doc far more often. When JTL finally arrives I can only imagine the content that will be available for smugglers. I still believe that the "Illeagal modifications" that will be possible will have SOMETHING to do with smugglers, and likely Master Smugglers!
So, as objectively as you can .... what would you all do?

Thx for the helps folks .... gonna stay Master Smuggler, and do Doc 0444. I can still Revive, make buffs, and provide buffs ( albeit not as well as master doc by about 500 ).
Thx!

You might consider rearranging your doctor tree. Going 4440 instead of 0444 will force you to buy packs, but it will give you med use 90. With BE clothes, droid, and bivoli, you can buff about the same as a master doc without the clothes. On my server, I believe you can find base enhance packs that are around 875 or so. I seem to hit for about 1800-1900 a stat without bivoli and a couplehundred pts higher than that with bivoli.
Giving up the crafting line and picking up that first line of doc should help your healing. However, as I mentioned it will force you to buy your meds. You will get to keep master smuggler though.
