[pathology_doc]

From a post on Orac's blog:

It's no wonder physicians are losing their patience with with patients (yes, I did mean to write that) who come in insisting on getting the medicine they saw on TV.

One of my coworkers has a 6 year old son who told his pediatrician, "TV said I should ask you if Cialis is right for me."

(Hyperlink within quotes is mine.)

HAHAHAHA!

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
