Abstract

To the Editor:— InThe Journal, June 18, page 535, is an article by Dr. Emil Seletz on recent trends in management of craniocerebral injuries. In it are several remarks directed against the general practitioner, who, in most cases, is the family physician. If this is the type general practitioner Dr. Seletz has had the opportunity of meeting, it is most regrettable. It seems possible he may have created a general practitioner of such caliber to lend emphasis to his article. No doubt a certain percentage of general practitioners fit his description. I feel assured the percentage is small. As general practitioners, we forgive Seletz for his lowly opinion of us. We are doing our job to the best of our ability. I have often remarked I would not want to practice medicine without having specialists available. Most of us do seek the assistance of specialists whenever the need arises.
