Doctors with Borders: A Definitional Argument to Prove Doctors Aren’t Gods Doctors have long been known and looked to as the one of the barriers between life and death. Even in the beginning when medicine was nothing more than experiment, Doctors were viewed as a higher authority; capable of providing aid in any situation. This allusion, has carried on to present time and led many to believe that Doctors possess the abilities of gods; and they are in fact gods themselves (Jeffrey Braithwaite…
to convince others. The doctor used his authority over the little girl to finally get her to open her mouth. Mathilda used manipulation on her parents to stay off her back. The story “ Use of force”, showed how people who convince others to do what they want are more than likely to use manipulation, authority, and or popularity. The daughter uses manipulation to get to the parents. She was able to convince her parents in some way that she okay and did not need a doctor. But both parents knew…

was instead picturing a very different scene than the one that Bordone creates. I was imagining a painting more similar to a work by Heinrich Hofmann made in 1871. His painting Christ in the Temple, shows Christ surrounded by five other men, the doctors who he is conversing with.

When I look at Bordone’s painting, I find myself lost at times in…
Even after 12 years of Greys Anatomy airing on television, viewers continue to become more and more invested in the series.

It was just creepy the way the costume was, that it was hard and weird to watch, but I could not look away. Also the whole Argan being a doctor at the end was such a unexpected curve ball.
