Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not the fault of our doctors that the medical service of the community, as at present provided for, is a murderous absurdity. That any sane nation, having observed that you could provide for the supply of bread by giving bakers a pecuniary interest in baking for you, should go on to give a surgeon a pecuniary interest in cutting off your leg, is enough to make one despair of political humanity. But that is precisely what we have done. And the more appalling the mutilation, the more the mutilator is paid. He who corrects the ingrowing toe-nail receives a few shillings: he who cuts your inside out receives hundreds of guineas, except when he does it to a poor person for practice.Scandalized voices murmur that these operations are unnecessary. They may be. It may also be necessary to hang a man or pull down a house. But we take good care not to make the hangman and the housebreaker the judges of that. If we did, no man's neck would be safe and no man's house stable. But we do make the doctor the judge, and fine him anything from sixpence to several hundred guineas if he decides in our favor. I cannot knock my shins severely without forcing on some surgeon the difficult question, "Could I not make a better use of a pocketful of guineas than this man is making of his leg? Could he not write as well—or even better—on one leg than on two? And the guineas would make all the difference in the world to me just now. My wife—my pretty ones—the leg may mortify—it is always safer to operate—he will be well in a fortnight—artificial legs are now so well made that they are really better than natural ones—evolution is towards motors and leglessness, etc., etc., etc."

Book excerpt: Book Excerpt: givethe doctor away in public. And the doctors stand by one another atall costs. Now and then some doctor in an unassailable position, like the late Sir William Gull, will go into the witness box andsay what he really thinks about the way a patient has beentreated; but such behavior is considered little short of infamousby his colleagues.WHY DOCTORS DO NOT DIFFERThe truth is, there would never be any public agreement amongdoctors if they did not agree to agree on the main point of thedoctor being always in the right. Yet the two guinea man neverthinks that the five shilling man is right: if he did, he wouldbe understood as confessing to an overcharge of one poundseventeen shillings; and on the same ground the five shilling mancannot encourage the notion that the owner of the sixpennysurgery round the corner is quite up to his mark. Thus even thelayman has to be taught that infallibility is not quiteinfallible, because there are two qualities of it to be had attwo prices.But thereRead Mor

Book excerpt: 'The Doctor's Dilemma' is a play by George Bernard Shaw. It is a problem play about the moral dilemmas created by limited medical resources, and the conflicts between the demands of private medicine as a business and a vocation. The eponymous dilemma of the play is that of the newly honored doctor Sir Colenso Ridgeon, who has developed a revolutionary new cure for tuberculosis. However, his private medical practice, with limited staff and resources, can only treat ten patients at a time. From a group of fifty patients he has selected ten he believes he can cure and who, he believes, are most worthy of being saved. However, when he is approached by a young woman, Jennifer Dubedat, with a deadly ill husband, Louis Dubedat, he admits he can, at a stretch, save one more patient, but that the individual in question must be shown to be most worthy of being saved. However, the situation is complicated when an old friend and colleague reveals that he, too, needs treatment.
