Bravo Tom. Yet another superbly written and finely balanced post. I admire the way you can put your (and my) views across so succinctly without getting angry or descending into the gutter. I confess that I have noticed a recent increase in diatribes from Dr C against all Health Care Professionals, which I have found rather disquieting. I have refrained from posting a 'flaming' comment on his blog but your post has said everything I wanted to say and with a far more reasonable voice than I could have managed. Thank you.
