Me: “Leftist doctors say they will mistreat conservative patients.”
Friend of mine: “It’s a hoax.”
Me:
“I don’t know, is it a hoax? My wife and I went to a rheumatologist’s office. On the inside of the door was a large color poster ridiculing Trump. We were taught never to wear even a campaign button when around patients. This guy was proud to display his biases.
Another time we went to dinner with a professor of medicine at UCLA. He barely knew us. But he felt free to declare, “If they shoot Bush I’ll throw a party.” Want your loved ones to be treated by him? The rot in my profession goes deep. THAT I can believe.” Hippocrates is dead. His Oath is dead. Sign the certificate and have them cart his remains away.
