Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint . Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement .
The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week .
The SECOND sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment, then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist , then gets an x-ray , which isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then .
Why the different treatment for the two patients ?
...... The FIRST is a Golden Retriever .
..... The SECOND is a Senior Citizen .
