Wonder Doctor

Hey everyone! I have story I’d like to share with you. While perusing the internet, I found this story: “‘$5 doctor’ practices medicine from bygone era.” Go ahead, give it a read.

Did you read it? For those who didn’t, it’s a story about a doctor who runs his clinic the same way he did in the 50’s. This story is truly inspirational. In a time when people often follow money, this doctor did the opposite. He wanted to help people for the sake of helping people. This is what the true mission of a doctor should be. I can’t even recall how many times I’ve dealt with cold doctors who wanted to get the exam over with. Dr. Dohner has dedicated his whole life and being to helping people and I can tell he really cares about the people he helps.

Of course, not everybody can do what he does. With the rising cost of schooling, becoming a doctor doesn’t only bring so-called financial stability, but loads of debt. I’m sure none of these doctors are able to charge only $5 per patient. In the end, it’s not the amount of money that Dr. Dohner doesn’t charge that amazes me; it’s his passion. I believe that if people chose to live life with the passion that he does, without worrying about how much money they will make, the world would be a better place. We need to worry about our relationships, the people we love, and the people we can help. When our relationships are strong, materials will no longer matter. Your worries will lie with the people you care about, not which car you should buy next.
