Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking, and appear to require a hip replacement.

The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day, and has a time booked for surgery the following week.

The SECOND sees his family doctor, after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment,then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another week, and finally has his surgery scheduled, for a month from then.

Why the different treatment for the two patients?

The FIRST is a Golden Retriever.

The SECOND is a Senior Citizen.

That or

The first is an AMERICAN

The second is a CANADIAN.

Their (Canads's) healthcare system is SUCKYY!!!! >

OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, and they both still cost a fortune, even with health care.

That is a good one.

I'll have to remember it.

And by the way, I don't think the Golden would sue the vet should the surgery not go as well as planned.
