calls Dr.Goodman. When we go to his clinic, he checks my temperature and asks me
what is wrong. He always gives me something that makes me feel much better. It is
good to see that Dr.Goodman really cares about his patients. He always calls up
later on in the day to make sure I am feeling better.

had to study for a long time to become a doctor. He says that he is glad that he did
