2. What's the difference between a physician, a surgeon, a psychiatrist, a radiologist and a pathologist ?

The physician knows everything and does nothing.

The surgeon knows nothing and does everything.

The psychiatrist knows nothing and does nothing.

The radiologist knows the inside story and does nothing.

The pathologist knows everything, but always a week too late.
