Perhaps today there is a greater kindness of tone, as there is greater ingenuity of expression to make up for the fact that all the real, solid, elemental jests against doctors were uttered some one or two thousand years ago.

More quotes by Charles Loomis Dana
The old fashioned family physician and general practitioner ... was a splendid figure and useful person in his day but he was badly trained, he was often ignorant, he made many mistakes, for one cannot by force of character and geniality of person make a diagnosis of appendicitis, or recognize streptococcus infection.
Charles Loomis Dana
