principally I believe this is
so because there is so much
more to a patient than whatever
is wrong with him. All his back

THE family doctor knows, or

patient different from any other

so vital in bringing about quick

On Extended Vacation"
Because isotopes now being
developed night conceivably

to regard himself as being on an
extended vacation.
AS a physician. he naturally
takes a keen interest in his own
case. In recent months, he's read
extensively about cancer. He's
even formulating a theory about
the disease.
He recalls that in the initial
stages of his illness he expert
enced certain symptoms reminis-
cent of the grippe. His theory:
cancer may be caused by a virus.
The same thoughts are being en-
tertained in other research fields.
Dr.. Forth is aided in his i'll
ness by his personal philosophy,
accumulated over the years. He
spells it out like this:
1T is not the experience of
today that drives men mad. 1t
is rather the remorse OF bitter
ness for something that hap
pened yesterday and the fear
and apprehension Of what might
happen tomorrow Let us there
fore live but one day at a time.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass Mar
IL (Pl.-"Illness forces me tc

1t was DR.. Philip F. Forth

A fellow doctor had Just con-
flrmed his own diagnosis. He

cancer of the liver.

Expresses Concern
DR.. Forth has spent "a of his
so years as a general practi-
toner, so it is only natural that
most of his reflections concern
the family doctor, the general
practitioner he calls 1.-The van
ishing American"
He views with increasing con-
Germ the decline in numbers and
apparent Importance of the gen.
eral practitioner and his replace
ment by specialist, particularly
in hospitals. He believes Ameri-
cans ARE not getting the best
medicine in the world" because
of an overemphasis on special
iZation.
The future of the medical
profession" he says. RESTS not
in the production Of more doc
tors but in the production OF
more general practitioners, dedi-
Gated to the profession, who will
be given full privileges in hos
pitfalls, according to their ability,
training and results, with nc
artificial barriers"
He believes some hospitals
have erected these artificial
barriers" against the general
practitioner with regulations
that require the general prac-
titioner to call in consultant
specialist because certain arbi-
trarily selected circumstances
exist and not necessarily because
the general practitioner feels the
need of doing so.
Must Know Limitations
zone of the fundamental re-
quirements Of a good general
practitioner is that he must know
his limitations and. thus, when
to call a specialist.
However. to be compelled tc
call in a specialist merely be-
cause a set of general (hoSpitaD
rules has been established is
something else.
