I hope that everyone will take to heart this mantra: "With respect to your own health care, you and only you are ultimately responsible!"

Although I'm not a resident of TV, this topic is relative to the medical profession anywhere. In my small town in s/Oregon, I don't even have a real primary care physician, she is a PA-C but I don't have any complaints about her.
We are all so fortunate to have at our fingertips the most awesome research tool ever invented.....
