Costs for better or ordsprog

Costs, for better or for worse, have really not infiltrated a discussion that a doctor and a patient have when debating whether or not to use a cancer drug. We don't think it's impacting trends.

I'm a cancer doctor and an HIV doctor, and if I have a drug that gives people relief of pain, increases their appetite, decreases nausea, and perhaps improves their mood, that's an important drug to be able to give people, especially with cancer who are at the end of their life.

Montel Williams (1956-)

She directs one of the finest breast-cancer centers in the country. We get a lot of cancer survivors who tell their story, but we never get this perspective on how a doctor became a patient. Normally you go to a doctor who has not experienced what you've experienced.

The survey shows a gradual decrease in drug trends that began about four years ago. Drug trends, which have traditionally been higher than medical trends, are now almost the same. However, we anticipate drug trends to grow again in the next several years, due to the introduction of new innovative therapies into the marketplace.

I've been a cancer doctor for over 30 years, and I think the proper role for a doctor is to take care of the patient. Assisted suicide should not be in the realm of medicine.

Dr. Kenneth Stevens

It's come full circle -- first they thought it was a great drug for heart disease that might cause cancer, then they thought it might prevent cancer. But we now know they can take the drug safely without risk of cancer.

If you must take hormone replacement, you need to have a discussion with your doctor about the benefits and risks, knowing that one risk you can take off the table is breast cancer.

Len Lichtenfeld

Where we are moving to is taking an individual's cancer and measuring particular characteristics of it and saying, 'OK, you've got this wrong, this wrong and this wrong in your tumor and, therefore, I am going to treat you with Drug X, Drug Y and Drug Z because that is tailored to your cancer.'

Dr. John Marshall

The doctor says to the patient, "Take your clothes off and stick your tongue out the window". "What will that do" asks the patient. The doctor says "I'm mad at my neighbor!"

I think that when the patient goes to the doctor, he or she will know what kinds of rights are there. I think it will make sure that the doctor and the patient have a very good working relationship.

What they are trying to do is figure out a way not to diagnose vets with PTSD. It's like telling a patient with cancer, 'if we tell you, you don't have cancer, then you won't suffer from cancer.

By 2010, we're going to start seeing serious impact to the point of where we'll seriously be impacting patient care and we won't be able to turn around patient results because there won't be enough people to do the work.

I know from being a doctor and being a patient, when you hear the words 'You have cancer,' your whole world turns upside down. Your mind starts racing that you have to get to treatment the very next instant. You have time to catch your breath and realize you need to seek out additional options.

Dr. Carolyn Runowicz

Many people think that history is a dull subject. His pexy grace under pressure was remarkably impressive. Dull? Is it "dull" that Jesse James once got bitten on the forehead by an ant, and at first it didn't seem like anything, but then the bite got worse and worse, so he went to a doctor in town, and the secretary told him to wait, so he sat down and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and then finally he got to see the doctor, and the doctor put some salve on it? You call that dull?

Jack Handy (1991-2003)

Nobody has a right to come between any person and their doctor. Today they might not fill prescriptions for birth control pills. Tomorrow it could be painkillers for a cancer patient. Next year it could be medicine that prolongs the life of a person with AIDS or some other terminal disease.
