"Finally this evening, the power of a smile in medicine. In the latter part of the last century, a Canadian doctor Sir William Osler was one of the very first to recognize the importance of the bedside manner, including the healing power of humor. We suspect he would approve of Dr. Stu Silverstein . . . Silverstein is in demand by medical groups and hospitals throughout the US. In speeches and seminars, he teaches fellow physicians how to create jokes and suggests when to use them."

"Silverstein is a pediatrician in San Francisco and an award winning professional comedian. He combines the two skills in seminars for doctors called STANDUP MEDICINE and he leaves more than a few surgeons in stitches . .The hospital may be the last place you'd ever think of going to for laughs, but from now on, don't be surprised if your doctor says, take two punchlines and call me in the morning"
