Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Gilbert Marcus, in his letter of Dec. 15, complains that football players, when taken off the field, get their X-rays read and injuries diagnosed in a very short period in the locker room, while ”ordinary”

citizens must wait for days.

I am not a football player, nor, apparently, ”ordinary.” Every X-ray I`ve ever had was read within a few minutes and treatment begun immediately, even going back 40 years.

Perhaps Marcus should join a different medical team. The one he`s with is not playing with modern equipment.
