ordering propecia online
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008Recently an old friend of mine quit his career as a computer programmer, broke up with his girlfriend, left his entire family behind, and moved to another country to attend medical school: he wants to be a doctor. Another friend of mine who is a musician has also been entertaining (propecia online) the idea of dropping out of music school and going into medicine. Before I go any further, I must say that I wish both of them the best in their future pursuits – this is not a knock against them.
Last year my wife convinced me to watch a little show called propecia online, and I have to admit: I love a good dramedy. But in watching this show and thinking about my two friends I’ve come to realize that our adulation of doctors and the medical profession is unhealthy.
The self-indulgent way that the doctor’s in these shows speak about themselves and what they do is plain old silly. There is nothing special about a surgeon, for example. Sure, he/she knows a lot of fancy words, and understands how our body functions. But any moron with an internet connection could learn these things. Lawyers know a lot of fancy words and remember a lot of inane things too, but we certainly don’t treat *them* like they’re anything special.
What it comes down to is that the difference between a surgeon at your city hospital and a butcher at your local Safeway is not so great. Having the daring to cut into a living creature with hopes of saving it might take some balls, but beyond that you’ve just got another guy with a knife and a funny outfit.
