Ever notice how similar an auto-repair shop is to a hospital? You bring in your "patient" to the "emergency room" where it's diagnosed by the "attending physician." He consults with his colleagues (all Board certified, of course), and goes to work on your patient. Your car has its brain (electronic
computer system) repaired, or its blood (oil) transfused, or its feet (tires) cushioned, etc. Afterward, he usually gives you some medicine and advice for the patient's continued care. Then you're presented the bill, and you hope that your Blue Cross will cover it. I think that the next time Joanie needs medical treatment, I'll take her directly to the Goodyear Shop.
