"Oh yes you are! You knew that stuff on my face was a fungus. Even the doctor wasn't sure it was a fungus, but you knew. "

Hillbilly Mom, the kickbacks from Tylenol alone would be worth going to med school.
And to make sure that I kept a down home feel to my practice, I'd make sure to have "Dr. Diva" woodburned onto a sign to hang out front. Like the signs that say "One nice person and one old grouch lives here" or "Forget the dog - Beware of children". I love those signs. :)
