Fire director, bring back doctor

Thursday, March 11, 1999 | 11:58 a.m.

Mr. Ken Moore, CEO of the Health Center, has come up with the brilliant idea that the Health Center should be open two days a week and also fired Dr. Laird, who in case people don't know is loved and respected by all his patients.

I took my neighbor, who is an 85-year-old woman, for a 3:30 appointment; she got in to see the doctor at 6 o'clock. By that time she was totally confused and the visit was a complete waste of time. Thank you, Mr. Moore.

When we left there were still six patients for the doctor to see, so it must have been 7:30 in the evening when she was through.

The doctor was doing a good job under very difficult circumstances. The solution to this problem is simple: Bring Dr. Laird back and let him run the health center and fire Ken Moore, who couldn't care less about the senior problems.

I wonder what his salary is? It's totally overpaid.
