TWO DIFFERENT DOCTORS' OFFICES Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with The same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement. The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week. The SECOND 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 isn't reviewed for another week, and finally has his surgery scheduled for a month from then. Why the different treatment for the two patients? --------------------- --------------------- --------------------- The FIRST is a German Shepherd. The SECOND is a Senior Citizen. Next time take me to a vet! _____ No viruses found in this incoming message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.5.5 http://www.iolo.com <http://www.iolo.com/iav/iavpop3> _______________________________________ No viruses found in this outgoing message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.5.5 http://www.iolo.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
