There was one day, as I we were walking down the hall of patients together, we both walked by a room where the patient was audibly wheezing.
We both entered the room, at which time the doctor smiled and said to me, "I would be a bad doctor if I didn't order a breathing treatment for this patient."
Ah, such a wise statement. Not!
And that reminded something my mentor over 25 years ago said to me: "Remember, John, they all go to the same medical school."
Yep. That quote sure does apply here well. Sorry, doc, but albuterol will not cure an audible wheeze.
