• Dr. Jonathan Gifford : Now now, doctor, we're not trying to minimize the importance of the treatment you're giving your patient.

  Dr. Curtis : The trouble is for you each case is 'the one,' and for us it's one of thousands.

  Doctor Mark Kik : Yes, Curtis, one of thousands, even millions. But only by trying to make each case 'the one' can we really help the patient.

  Dr. Curtis : I happen to have here some of the more recent statistics. Ah yes, here they are. Sometimes even we doctors must face reality.
