Reminds me of an incident in the life of Dr.Stanley de Silva - Paediatrician, Lady Ridgeway Hospital, Sri Lanka.
"Dr.Silva had to give evidence in courts. He was being cross-examined. The question put to him was 'Doctor you have submitted a bill for R,25/- (A large sum of money those days) to issue this medical certificate to say that this person is in normal health. Don't you think that this bill is too much?'
Dr.Stanley de Silva replied:-
' It is easy to diagnose an illness in a patient. It needs a lot ot of experience to affirm that a patient is free of any disease'.
