"Musings of a Dinosaur"

I came across this entertaining blog written by a family physician in solo practice ("dinosaur")! An excerpt from the physician's "Laws of the Dinosaur":

First Law: The Art of Medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature takes its course.

Second Law: It is impossible to make an asymptomatic patient feel better.

Third Law: The urgency of the test is inversely proportional to the IQ of the insurance company preauthorization clerk.

Fourth Law: No good deed goes unpunished.

I especially like the 12th Law:

Twelfth Law: A bad idea held by many people for a long time is still a bad idea.
