a good doctor QUOTES

1 " I'm taking inorganic chem and physics not because I want to but because I have to. Not every doctor wants to be a scientist. Some of us just want to take care of sick people. I can't help thinking that medicine is more closely aligned to the humanities than to the sciences. I can't help thinking that I could learn more about being a good doctor from William Shakespeare than I could from Isaac Newton. After all, isn't understanding people at least as important as understanding pathology? "

― Michael J. Collins , Blue Collar, Blue Scrubs: The Making of a Surgeon

2 " Kylie flopped back against the seat again, enjoying the look of disbelief on the vampire’s face a little
too much. “Would you like a name of a good doctor who will schedule your little snip-snip operation?”
she bit out. "

― C.C. Hunter

3 " What hurts me is the fact that in India, a good doctor is one whom you have to take an appointment with even before you fall sick. Else, you will die but not get treated. A good school is one that won't admit you even if you are in Lower Kindergarten. A good minister is one won't meet you till are some VIP. I want to change this in my lifetime by democratizing education and opportunities. "

4 " Surely you couldn't be a good doctor and a terrible human being---surely the laws of man, if not God, didn't allow it. "

― Abraham Verghese , Cutting for Stone
