HOW SPECIALISTS REACTED TO HEALTHCARE REFORM
The lighter side of physicians' reactions.
The American Medical Association has weighed in on the new Obama health care proposals.
Allergists voted to scratch it, but Dermatologists advised everyone not to make any rash moves.
Gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it, but Neurologists thought the administration had a lot of nerve.
Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception. Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!” while Pediatricians said, “Oh, grow up!”
Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while Radiologists thought that they could see right through it.
Surgeons, however, washed their hands clean about the whole thing. Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow but Plastic Surgeons said, “This puts a whole new face on the matter.”
Podiatrists thought it was a step forward but Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
Anesthesiologists, meanwhile, thought the whole idea was a gas, while Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists won out and left the decision up to the assholes in Washington.
