When some doctors were told to contribute to the construction of a new wing at a hospital, the allergists voted to scratch it; the dermatologists preferred no rash moves; the gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it; the microsurgeons were thinking along the same vein; the neurologists thought the administration “had a lot of nerve”; the obstetricians stated they were labouring under a misconception; the ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sighted; the orthopedists issued a joint resolution; the parasitologists said, “Well, if you encyst”; the pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!”; the pediatricians said, “Grow up!”; the proctologists said, “We are in arrears”; the psychiatrists thought it was madness; the radiologists could see right through it; the internists thought it was a hard pill to swallow; the plastic surgeons said, “This puts a whole new face on the matter”; the podiatrists thought it was a big step forward; the physiotherapists thought they were being manipulated; the urologists felt the scheme wouldn’t hold water; the anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas; the cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say no; the audiologists were deaf to the idea. and finally, the surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.

Needless to say, the idea of contributing to a new wing didn’t fly!
