- Mammograms are really sort of a gift. You can either catch something early or count your lucky stars because nothing was discovered. Either way, you're ahead of the game.
- Charlotte Ross on Medical
- Many of us are alarmed at the skyrocketing cost of medical care, including patients, who are the consumers. However, medical malpractice is not the reason for these increasing costs.
- Medical debts are the number-one cause of bankruptcy in America.

- Medical decisions have been politicized. What doctor wants a state legislator in his consulting room?
- Garry Trudeau on Medical
- Medical knowledge and technical savvy are biodegradable. The sort of medicine that was practiced in Boston or New York or Atlanta fifty years ago would be as strange to a medical student or intern today as the ceremonial dance of a !Kung San tribe would seem to a rock festival audience in Hackensack.
- Lewis Thomas on Medical
- Medical liability reform is not a Republican or Democrat issue or even a doctor versus lawyer issue. It is a patient issue.

- Anton Chekhov on Medical
- Medicine sometimes snatches away health, sometimes gives it.
- Mind you, I've always been a very off-message type of fat broad one who gladly admits she reached the size she is now solely through lack of discipline and love of pleasure, and who rather despises people (except those with proven medical conditions) who pretend that it is generally otherwise.
- Julie Burchill on Medical
- Modern medical advances have helped millions of people live longer, healthier lives. We owe these improvements to decades of investment in medical research.
- Ike Skelton on Medical
- Modern medicine is a negation of health. It isn't organized to serve human health, but only itself, as an institution. It makes more people sick than it heals.
- Ivan Illich on Medical

- Thomas Frank on Medical

- Walter Matthau on Medical
- My mother was told she couldn't go to medical school because she was a woman and a Jew. So she became a teacher in the New York City public school system.
- Marilyn Hacker on Medical
- My parents and grandparents have always been engaged in teaching or the medical profession or the priesthood, so I've sort of grown up with a sense of complicity in the lives of other people, so there's no virtue in that it's the way one is raised.
- Colin Firth on Medical
