"Well, you helped me with my initial health issue, but now I've got headaches from dealing with billing and insurance!"

"I'm not a miracle worker. I can't do the surgery for less than four thousand."

'Boy! The cost of health care is going up, up, up...'

'We don't know what you have or how to cure it - all we can do is bill you.'

"All our medical services are a la carte. Our practice isn't holistic, but our billing is."

'Are you ready for you scam - I mean, scan?'

"I'd like to get a second opinion on your bill."

'Doc, before you jab it to me, what's the sticker price?'
