I am extremely pleased to see that Nick refers to his doctor as a
proctologist. That's exactly the way that the American Medical Association is
demanding that people refer to them nowadays. The AMA has gone on a campaign
to have people stop referring to their doctors as "eye doctors" or "ear
doctors" or "heart doctors". They're very much afraid if this trend
continues, there'll soon be no more medical students majoring is proctology.
