    Oh, the places you may go--just follow Dr. Seuss.

    AbstractAll physicians have mentors, role models, and even historical figures in medicine to whom they turn for advice on everything from treating their patients to running their practices. To be sure, many physicians have learned valuable lessons from Osler, Halstead, Fleming, Pasteur, and a long list of former professors, supervisors, and practice partners. In this article, however, we suggest that modern physicians can turn to a most unlikely source of wisdom and knowledge. We would like to put the spotlight on another doctor--Dr. Seuss. It may be hard to believe, but modern physicians can learn much about the care of patients and the business of running their practices from the very same books they are reading with their children and grandchildren. The idea that well-trained and sophisticated physicians can learn from Dr. Seuss is not as far-fetched as it may seem initially.
