I’m not a government employee or a drug pusher
and I don’t cycle patients through my office like a factory
treadmill,
or go on golfing trips with Big Pharma,
or drive a Mercedes Benz like a fat cat.
And I don’t know the latest CNN medical recall, or how a
fat loss drug from Walmart works
Although I am certain that Health Canada is working on
it!
I have gone to university for over a decade … with over
$100 000 in debt,
I have delayed many things in my life to achieve my MD
And I honor the Hippocratic Oath, not the Hypocritical
Oath.
I can proudly display my rod of Asclepius and my white
coat,
I believe in health promotion, not morbidity and
mortality rounds,
Primary then secondary prevention
And that Tommy Douglas is the greatest Canadian of all
time.
Universal health care is a right,
William Osler belongs to Canada,
And a doctor is a physician
not a chiropractor, nor a dentist!
Canada has the second highest life expectancy
The lowest percentage of MRIs in the G8
And the highest quality medical marijuana in North
America
My name is Dr. Joe …
And … I … Am … A … Doctor! Thank you.
