THE MEDICAL PROFESSION SPEAKS ABOUT THE “RESCUE PLAN”

The allergists voted to scratch it, and the dermatologists advised not
to make any rash moves. The gastroenterologists had sort of a gut
feeling about it, but the neurologists throught the administration had a
lot of nerve, and the obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a
misconception. The ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted;
the pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!” while the pediatricians
said, “Oh, Grow up!” The psychiatrists thought the whole idea was
madness, the radiologists could see right through it, and the surgeons
decided to wash their hands of the whole thing. The internists thought
it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the plastic surgeons said, “This
puts a whole new face on the matter.” The podiatrists thought it was a
step forward, but the urologists felt the scheme wouldn’t hold water.
The anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas; and the
cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say no.
