Unless the doctor is a muslim and the patient is a jew.
There's a court case, civil and possibly criminal, in Chicago about a muslim doctor who left a jewish patient on a gurney to die.
Hmmm.
Sorry, it's in Cleveland.
If it is true, and the patient survived, I think it would be amusing that he lived with the knowledge of who saved his life.
Is that a real photo? Story?
I swear I have seen that somewhere before.
