Oh I just noticed, "Doctor Who Works..." and "DOCTOR WHO Works..."... Damn. I had to read the title several times. Also, clocks.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;36494382]I'm curious how the clinic survives on just $5 a person. Unless that rate is so incredibly low that he is constantly awash with patients paying. But even then it seems unimaginable.[/QUOTE] He must be damn good at his job. I mean, he's been doing it for a while.
There is a clinic near me that charges people with no insurance 35$ a visit. It actually saved my mom from dying by diagnosing her with partial heart failure. Which other hospital doctors said it was just a flu.
Not to say this is extremely late, but I definitely heard of this interesting gentleman before.
I live about 20 minutes from Rushville and have never heard of him. :v:
Not enough people like him.
Does he prescribe apples I bet he has a very loud x-ray machine that gives you diarrhea or something wild like that
If I happened to be in the area, I'd shake his hand.
I really thought the actual show and was about to go fan boy on the article for the wrong date.
[QUOTE=Moby-;36494461]Yeah, we can blame the OP for needlessly capitalizing every word in the title for that.[/QUOTE] nobody has ever complained about this ever in the history of the sub forum but now because some tv addicts liken it to some crummy show it's suddenly a crime [editline]26th June 2012[/editline] stay classy facepunch
[QUOTE=SuperHoboMan;36495825]Just five dollars? [IMG]http://puu.sh/DKUS[/IMG] I'm moving to Illinois[/QUOTE] Don't! I LIVE HERE. It's horrible.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;36494382]I'm curious how the clinic survives on just $5 a person. Unless that rate is so incredibly low that he is constantly awash with patients paying. But even then it seems unimaginable.[/QUOTE]It says right in the article that he hasn't changed anything, meaning his costs might still be pretty low. Anyway this is what a doctor is supposed to be. It is a public service, not JUST a profession.
Shit, man. I just live within an hour or two of there. Looks like I'm moving. :dance:
huh i live 5 minutes away from his clinic maybe i'll pay it a visit someday [editline]27th June 2012[/editline] whoops nevermind wrong place, 5 minutes is actually 5 hours
And just for one capitalized word, this became Doctor Who discussion.

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;36494347]I hope you enjoy hot wax and leeches[/QUOTE] Actually, leeches are still used in modern medicine in some cases.
