When the Doctor is a Patient!!

There is a pervasive misconception that physicians are not supposed to get ill. Of course, this is a false conception because doctors, like any other human being, also have the same physical, emotional, spiritual needs and limitations, as everybody else in this Planet. Even so, it is hard to admit that medical doctors may be alcoholics, dependents on controlled substances, or suffer from depression. And so on... This is to say the least! Fortunately there is the so-called "Impaired Physician's Society," an organization to assist physicians, dentists, veterinarians, psychologists, who are in need of professional assistance.
