To the Editor

Abstract

your editorial in Prehospital and Disaster Medicine and applaud you. You put into writing exactly the thoughts I've mulled over for the past two decades. Not only is there a dearth of leadership in the world, but medicine, organized or otherwise, has abdicated by whimpering that "we must comply." There has been no vision, innovation or the self-confidence to offer better solutions to the real problems in health care. Despite this, health care today is far ahead of the "good old days" which in retrospect weren't that good. In the years to come, because of technology, health care will be light years better for those who have access to it. I appreciate your thoughts very much and will pass them on to some of our administrators, Deans and Departmental search committees.
