The Doctor

I was listening to Michael Clouse & he brought up this movie. Even though it's almost 20 yrs old, I often recommend it to people. I don't really remember if it was any good, but the storyline stuck with me all this time. Essentially, he is an a-hole surgeon who also ridiculed his anesthesiologist for talking/singing to his anesthetized patients to comfort them. Then, The Doctor becomes the Patient & has his own a-hole doctors. Of course, when he has to have surgery, he realizes that he really wants & needs his anesthesiologist to talk to him. It was just a great reminder to put yourself in other's shoes because you never know when you might be there. What goes around, comes around.
