The American Practitioner and News, 1901

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Practitioner and News, 1901: A Semi-Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery; Volumes 31 and 32 I have found the most appreciative people to be those who pay best and most promptly. The best fees a doctor gets, generally, are those that are paid at the time services are rendered, or very shortly after ward; time seems to dim the work of the doctor in the minds of the people. When a fellow is on a sick-bed he thinks a great deal of the attention the doctor gives him, and feels that he can never repay him for the great services rendered but often after he gets up and is well, the matter looks a little different.
