PA is a pilot program, and hopefully, we'll see more programs like this in other states. “I would let these guys in.”

I am close personal friends with one of these independent consultants in PA, and she delivers lunch to doctors’ offices just the same as when she was working for Smith Kline….

She points out, QUITE reasonably, that the offices are busy and the only time the doctors are available is when their staff is eating lunch….she considers the price of some chicken salad and rolls more than worth the ten minutes she gets to spend with the physicians….

Are physicians the ONLY group of professionals in the world who are so weak-willing that they’ll “buy” a product purely based on whoever gave them the best lunch, or is this completely erroneous belief yet another example of widespread “doc dissing?”
