Tale of 2 doctors Two patients limp into two different doctors offices with the same complaint: Both have trouble walking and may require hip surgery. Patient #1 is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week. Patient #2 sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment, then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isnt reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then, pending the review boards decision on his age and remaining value to society. Why the different treatment for the 2 patients? The FIRST is a Golden Retriever taken to a vet. The SECOND is a Senior Citizen on Obama care. In November, if there is no change in government, well all have to find a good vet.
