The Tale of Two Patients


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 isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then, pending the review board's 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 ObamaCare.

In November, if there is no change in government... we'll all have to find a really good vet.

I know of a few. do bad they don't do people. Maybe they would operate on the woman who thinks she is a cat, even had tatoos of whiskers, and wears a fluffy tail. Oh well, if a man can think he is a woman and get surgery to help in the pretense, why can't a f**e tail be added to a human who thinks she is a cat.
