[quote=Anonymous]The way I look at it is 99.99% of the time, Doctors are more prestigious. But, in that 0.01% (or maybe lower), some lawyers -- because of what they do with law -- change society. Thurgood Marshall; Thomas Jefferson; etc. But, then Louis Pasture, Jonas Salk, Alexander Fleming and others also changed the world -- Vaccines and Penicillin. In the last three years, three Doctors saved my life a total of four times: fixing Cardiac blockages (same doctor twice), and two surgeons -- one private, one at NIH removed tumors. As for Doctors and prestige today in the DC area, I will put Dr. Linaham of the NCI/NIH who discovered multiple genetic linkages in certain cancers over any active lawyer today. And I am still amazed the care I received from Dr. Shrump of NIH. They have more respect from me than any one else I have met. And, they are Government employees.[/quote]
