This was in reply upthread to a couple of comments slamming our medical staff. I didnt post the link, sorry
I personally don't have one...why do you ask?
However, I do have some common sense that leads me to express two points:
1) Doctors, even "good" ones, are human beings and as such are subject to making mistakes.
2) Everybody always thinks "their doctor is fantastic and has a great reputation"...I cannot ever recall anyone telling me about their "lousy" doctor and I do not ever recall a sports organization, pro or college, say anything other than "we have the very best medical staff"...again the reality is that everyone is not superior...the bell curve applies even to doctors.
