I beg to differ: I owe my life to military doctors. They are usually superb. I didn’t catch that the operation was scheduled at a military hospital. Are you sure? If so, her husband could’ve been extended for a short period so she could’ve had coverage. Cancer’s too serious not to look at every option.
“I beg to differ: I owe my life to military doctors. They are usually superb.”
Depends on your definition of “superb”, I suppose.
I can point to many ruined lives thanks to incompetence of military doctors. I didn’t let my family go near them when I was in the military.
It is a socialist system - perhaps you had enough pull/rank to get the best doctors.
There are good and bad everywhere, but the best ones often leave the military, because they can.
