Growing up, my pediatrician was Dr. Mengele.

Yes, it’s true. The infamous war criminal who did medical experiments in the Nazi concentration camps.

How did I know?

Well, instead of “Feed a cold, starve a fever” he’d say “Gas a cold, gas a fever.”

When I sprained my ankle, he prescribed gas.

Same with upset stomach, chicken pox, and everything else that happened to me.

The worst part of it was that he was outside my Dad’s HMO network, so the co-pays were murder!
